Temporary fixes to address some existing gameplay issues.

Some of these issues may not be officially recognized as bugs, but rather design adjustments made by the developers for balance or version evolution.

We offer an alternative fix that we believe better suits the gaming experience, based solely on community feedback and player experience.


🎯 Mod Information :

  • Mutator name:GhostCollisionFix, AIVehiclePerceptionFix, AIHeliCombatFix
  • Requirement:Server and Client
  • This is a server-side Blueprint runtime script modification and additional solution. Therefore, its effects will only apply to dedicated servers that subscribe to it, as well as local play sessions where it is used.
  • This will be used as a temporary measure before the release of version 1.22.

🧩 What did it adjust or fix:

  • GhostCollisionFix:  The official version has been corrected. ✅️ -Resolves an issue where player collision (include AI) may persist or behave incorrectly after death, leading to invisible or “ghost” collision volumes remaining in the world.
  • AIVehiclePerceptionFix: Fixes an issue where AI fails to perceive players who are inside vehicles or using vehicle-mounted weapons, resulting in a complete lack of detection or reaction. Also enables bipod deployment on vehicles where applicable and prevents vehicles from being reclaimed by the gameplay system after being abandoned.
  • AIHeliCombatFix: Due to AI bots being able to spot and engage fire support helicopters (Black Hawk, Apache) with near-perfect accuracy at unrealistically long ranges, these helicopters struggle to survive against ground fire. This mutator adds server-configurable options for AI sight range against helicopters, the maximum engagement distance for AI-held weapons against helicopters, and minimum damage thresholds for individual helicopter components (tail rotor, main rotor, fuselage/engine), allowing admins to balance the survivability of official fire support helicopters.

🛠 How to set up:

  1. Make sure you are familiar with the use of the module, you can refer to the official guide.
  2. Subscribe to this mod using either the Mod.io account used by the server or the player's Mod.io account.
  3. Add the Mutator name to the server startup parameters.
  4. Add Mutator configuration in your server's Game.ini(If needed) .
  5. Restart the server.

🔥 Mutator configuration:

  • Default (Ready to use. If you have special needs, please switch the options yourself.)
