Notes:
* The more cowardice a [[Group]] or [[Object]] has, the sooner it will start fleeing.
* Fleeing only affects AI led groups.
* 0 means maximum courage, while 1 means always fleeing.
* Only the group as a whole can flee (or not).
* More details in [[fleeing]]
* The courage of the AI group is based on the group's leader [[Arma_3_AI_Skill#Sub-Skills|courage subskill]].
* Each group has a max strength (summed "armor" of all infantry units - plus armor when inside vehicles).
* If the group losses by injury/damage or death/destruction are higher than the max strength, multiplied by leader's courage or [[allowFleeing]] level , then the group will start fleeing.
* As result primarily the AI flees to a nearby "supply point" (some friendly units - preferably with medic or engineer, or a vehicle with repair/ammo/fuel cargo). Alternatively it will try to find a safe position within a 600m radius from the initial waypoint (danger, distance, amount of cover positions are taken into account).
* After the fleeing has been finished the group's initial strength is reset.
* Fleeing units in [[combatMode]] red, will be set to yellow when fleeing to avoid engaging enemies while doing so.
* While fleeing, the group leader will be set to green, to avoid giving engage or fire orders, unless in [[combatMode]] blue already. Also [[speedMode]] is set to full.
* When reaching their flee point/destination, they will change to [[combatMode]] yellow and [[speedMode]] normal.
* With [[allowFleeing]] one can make unit's flee earlier (or essentially never flee). Apply it, overrides the courage subskill influence.
