Peppergun has almost no effect on swat member

[T-MaxWiese-T]

If you shoot officers with normal helmets or none in the face with the peppergun it only has an effect if you hit a certain spot. In Singleplayer when I shoot the peppergun in the face of the team members it has almost no effect. You have to shoot 3-5 times for it to have an effect.

I did a test and my team attacked me with the peppergun and I got no damage or anything.

This isn’t a bug, it’s intentional. The pepper gun is meant to have a random effect.

[eezstreet]

Does this affect suspects as well, though?

[T-MaxWiese-T]

To my knowledge, it doesn't concern suspects. I don't understand why this is intended.

Check the changelog for v7, that's when it was introduced.

[T-MaxWiese-T]

How can it be that I am shot at 15 times by 4 officers and I do not take any damage or anything else. That is very unrealistic.

[eezstreet]

The probabilities can be tweaked. If it is affecting SWAT and suspects differently then that is the bug at hand.

[T-MaxWiese-T]

So SWAT officers are much more resistant to this which can lead to strange situations when you get shot by your own team with Pepperball without getting hurt. So the probability should be increased.

After further testing I suspect that it might be related to this bug. #136 I recommend to test it yourself, because this bug is a bit weird. Test:

• Shoot the officers in the face without a helmet (I have the feeling that in some places in the face no effect is achieved)
• Being shot at by your own officers over various distances and inclines.
• Check SWAT AI Aim with suspects.
