Description

Description:

Checks if a unit is fleeing.

Notes:

• Fleeing only affects AI led groups.
• Only the group as a whole can flee (or not).
• The courage of the AI group is based on the group's leader 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.
