Would it be possible to give the AI advanced health?

For example, if I shoot the enemy int he leg, he/she will slow down and drag the leg behind. A headhot would equal an instant kill, and about 3 bullets in the chest also should kill the AI.

Is it possible to do this? Of course, I'm "not allowed" to mention anything to do with codes, so is this possible without them in fpsc?

Variable hit points I dont think FPSC will have.

If you want variable health of course thats another matter and you should be able to set it so that you can kill an enemy with a single shot - with a sniper rifle for instance so its looks good and gives the impression that enemies have varing strengths orthat you were particularly clever or accuurate in your shooting to improve gameplay feel.

It just requires battle scene scenarios with careful placement of enemies and thoughtful level design.

Without hit point recognition - your enemies will take the same amount of damage wherever they are hit e.g. leg or head - its then all the same health reduction.

Well remember you can set the damage for the sniper rifle very high and then with clever level design you could make it so that the distant enemy(ies) can only be seen from the shoulders up.

Basically just kind of fool the player into thinking that head shots are better than others (actually this is the case in some FPS games anyways)
