I think the command you're looking for would be "shotdamage=1", which will return TRUE when the entity has received 1 or more shot damage.

The line of code would look like this:

In addition to this script: How to do that enemy attacks when he hears gunshot, or sees that second enemy is killed?

I think the command for that is "noiseheard" or something along those lines. Might want to double check that in the manual, though, I probably misspelled it.
But you can look in some of the stock AI scripts. I know they use that command.

As for seeing another entity killed, that would require a lot more scripting. You would be better off scripting your AI to alert the AI near them when they are shot.

You can do it a couple of different ways:
1) name all of your enemies the same name, then when they detect being shot have them "settargetname=<name of your enemies>,activetarget=1". Now script your enemies to wait for that activation value and, when received, immediately engage the player.

2) Script your enemies to utilize a global variable. Check for it to change value, and if changed, engage the player. If shot, or if they found the player and ARE engaging the player, have them set the global variable, so tht they effectively "alert" their buddies.


Hope those made sense.

Yes, I would have said a global variable too. this bit where you shoot them and they do nothing is annoying isnt it? im trying to add as much realism to my game as possible, so this will come in handy.
Thanks.

EDIT
Dont worry, it was a stupid question and I removed it.

EDIT 2
Also, is there a way to generate a random intiger?
Why I ask is I want to say generate a random number from 1 to 3.
if the intiger is 1, for them to fight it out alone.
if the intiger is 2, they run.
if the intiger is 3, they call backup and then attack.
Thanks.
