| Development Update #9 - AI | 2025-12-18 | Hey Everyone! In this episode we wanna spotlight the latest ai changes mainly driven by our new AI programmer, better known as Solarint. You may know him from the AI mod for SP-Tarkov called “SAIN”. Before we start, we want to get ahead of any possible confusion around the use of the term “AI”. When we talk about AI or bots, this has nothing to do with LLMs or any of the hype around “AI”. This is a normal game system inspired by decades of work from other developers. The point of this dev-log is to list the major new mechanics being introduced and explain the reasoning and goals for each system. So, let's talk about what we’ve been working on |

AI improvements have also been made thanks to our talented Lead AI Developer, Solarint. And, of course, overall engine improvements and optimization as we look to upgrade from Unreal Engine 5.4 to 5.6. New Map - |
