Thread: Does the AI use cannister shot

    Default Does the AI use cannister shot

    I know cannister has been changed to a much more effective double shot, but I don't think the AI uses this. This means that the human player has a huge advantage in sailing close and unleashing the cannister double shot and wade through the single round shot that the AI uses. Its a bit of an exploit. If I restrict myself to using round shot then battles are very tough because I'm unable to damage the enemy very much. Maybe the cannister shots should be altered?

    squatlover: in new version there is better balistical effect portrayed - damage is higher at close range, and smaller at long range - so - at range under 40% of max range guns deal 1.5x more damage, at 80% they deal just 0.5... so solid shots cause a lot of damage from short range too, canisters and doubleshots are good too, but AI is not at that big disadvantage if he fires solids instead...
