Hi.

I need to create an ability to launch two grenades at same time by two different entities in one squad.

For example one riflemen squad with six members launch two grenades at same time, one entity one grenade, other one grenade, same time.

If one entity die, so they launch 2 grenades until remaining only one entity.

Is this possible with the attribute tool?

I have tried a lot of combination with abilities without obtaining the desired results.

Regards.

Not really. I think you can have all the entities throw, similar to assault, but anywhere in between is tricky.

But, keep at it, there might be a way, or someone else might know.

If you want the ability to throw 2 grenades, but you don't care if it happens at the same time, you can put in a delay in the actions and repeat the accessory weapon action. One of the Panzer Elite doctrines allowed you to throw anti-tank 2 grenades instead of just one, and it was basically that; throw, delay, throw. The same entity would throw the 2nd grenade a couple seconds later.

CoH1's Blitzkrieg doctrine had an Assault ability that used an AI plan to force the squad into close range and made them throw a set number of grenades. This caused more than one soldier to throw a grenade, and I believe it was tweakable to get an exact number of grenades thrown per usage of the ability. However I don't think we can add or edit AI plans at the moment.

The idea is launch 2 grenades at same time with two diferent entities of the squad.

Good!!! So, wait for AI edit release.

Thanks!!!

The AI categories are actually moddable as of this latest patch. However, I believe the way the plans work in CoH2 differs from the way they did in CoH1.

CoH1 AI plans that were used by abilities were pretty much a hack. Only two abilities referenced them, the Blitzkrieg Assault and the Churchill Tank Shock abilities, so I'm not surprised they work differently in CoH2.
