:*A melee override can be used together with the "Go For Gun" behavior and a properly-set Short combat range to create AIs who go for a gun any time they have a chance, yet they are not allowing an enemy to land free hits in the process (if the enemy gets too close, the Short range melee override kicks in). | :*A melee override can be used together with the "Go For Gun" behavior and a properly-set Short combat range to create AIs who go for a gun any time they have a chance, yet they are not allowing an enemy to land free hits in the process (if the enemy gets too close, the Short range melee override kicks in). | ||
:*The no-gun behavior "Retreat" works in a rather simple manner: if unarmed, an AI is given a desire to run as far from the enemy as possible. This behavior can look a bit awkward, but is useful for making more life-like civilians. Combined with Melee override at "Short range" or "If punched", and a bit of BSL scripting to deliberately switch between "combatant" and "non-combatant", a modder can achieve impressive results without only a light load on the game engine.

:*Setting short get-up times is a good way to make an AI-driven character a formidable opponent in hand-to-hand combat. However, too-short get-up times can introduce problems. It is a good idea to experiment with get-up parameters till the character feels "natural". | :*Setting short get-up times is a good way to make an AI-driven character a formidable opponent in hand-to-hand combat.
