Basically the goal is to make the suspects stay in the area filled with potential covers to make it more difficult for police forces to put them down. The problem is that once in combat they run all over the place and end up out in the open, easy to kill... Is it possible to limit their actions in combat?

 

I tried to force them to "TakeCoverAt" the specific positions every time they find themselves more than 100 feet from their spawn points but I came up short.

If you've engaged them in a pursuit then they will use the custom AI to escape the police.

If you specifically want them to stay put then you need to assign a task to them and make it persistent i.e no other tasks can override it.

Thank you.

They're not in the pursuit. I've followed your other advise but the game has crashed and I can't really say why. Could you have a quick look?

                Guard2.Tasks.TakeCoverAt(Spawn1, Spawn2, 200000, MEANSNOTHING);
                GameFiber.Sleep(9000); //time for finding cover
                Game.SetRelationshipBetweenRelationshipGroups("MYENEMY", "COP", Relationship.Hate);

                while (true)

The moment I get rid of the loop the code works but without it its kinda useless. I'm thinking missing reference? Do you happen to know if I need one for "GameFiber.StartNew(delegate);" ?

Your native call is wrong. It should be

NativeFunction.Natives.TASK_STAY_IN_COVER(Guard1);

or

NativeFunction.Natives.TaskStayInCover(Guard1);

Thank you so much! Problem solved.
