Immersion Suppression

Being shot at feels like it. Bullets cracking past, blasts going off and being hit shake your camera, blur your view and make it harder to shoot, and the AI can be pinned down the same way.

Camera shake

• The camera kicks when a round cracks past you, more for bigger bullets and less for small ones.
• Prone shakes less than standing. No shake in vehicles, while unconscious, or in Zeus.

Player stress

• Near-misses and hits make you blink, blur your view and worsen aim and recoil for a while, then recover.
• Crouching and lying prone protect you from part of it.
• Friendly fire does not trigger it by default.

Explosions

• Grenades, rockets and artillery landing near you shake the screen, blur the view, distort colors at the edges and can knock you out if very close. The same applies to nearby AI.

AI pinning

• AI that come under fire keep their heads down: they fight worse, then recover.
• Can also make AI fire suppressive bursts at targets they know about.
• Off by default. Your own squad can be left out of it.

Settings

Each part can be turned off or tuned. See settings_users.md. This addon has no keybinds.
