How To Customise Advanced AI Perception and Detection Ranges on Your Insurgency Server

Note:

Increasing these ranges significantly raises server difficulty. While perfect for “Hardcore” play, you should reduce the SightRadius if players are being engaged from unrealistic distances to ensure a fair balance between challenge and playability.

1. Log In to Your Panel

---

2. Stop Your Server

---

3. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

---

4. Open the ‘Game.ini’ file

Navigate to:

Insurgency/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/

5. Edit the ‘Game.ini’ File

Variable	Technical Function
HearingRange	Acoustic Detection: Defines the radius (in Unreal Units) within which a bot can detect player-generated noise, such as sprinting or reloading, through walls or obstacles.
SightRadius	Visual Acquisition: The maximum distance at which a bot can initiate a visual lock on a player. A value of 3000 provides a realistic, long-range engagement distance.
LoseSightRadius	Tracking Persistence: This sets the distance required to break the AI’s visual tracking. Setting this higher than the SightRadius ensures bots remain “locked on” even if a player moves slightly out of the initial detection range.
LoSHearingRange	Direct Acoustic Awareness: Extends the bot’s hearing capabilities when a clear Line of Sight exists, allowing them to react instantly to long-range weapon fire or movement.
