[Tactical Suppression Fire Settings]

;*********************************************************************************************************************** *******
; These settings control the behavior of Suppression Fire, its severity, and its side-effects.
;
; Please note: Activating this system may have a PROFOUND effect on your game - it changes the way battles are fought
; (hopefully making them more realistic). Do not change any setting unless you understand what it does!!
;
; To enable the system, raise the value of "SUPPRESSION_EFFECTIVENESS" above 0.

; SUPPRESSION BASICS
;
; Suppression Fire is a way of controlling a battlefield. When under heavy fire, a character accumulates suppression.
; He will then lose APs proportionally. The goal is to SUCK OUT THE ENEMY'S APs, so he can't move or fire back.
;
; Characters have a TOLERANCE value that helps them resist suppression fire. A higher value decreases AP loss, Shock,
; and morale loss. This value is based on the character's Experience and Morale, among other things.
;
; In addition to AP loss, Suppression SHOCK can also be accumulated. This makes the character less useful, by reducing
; his Chance-to-Hit considerably. It also makes the character harder to hit himself.
;
; Characters with too much SHOCK are said to be COWERING. They are now even more vulnerable to suppression than normal!
;
; Characters can go into negative APs when under suppression fire. This means they lose APs off their NEXT turn as well.
; A character who has lost all APs off his NEXT turn is said to be PINNED DOWN. This is the best result from suppression
; fire, it means that the character is useless of a whole turn and can be assaulted safely.
;
; Use suppression fire to prevent enemies from approaching, pin them down, and then advance and kill them while they are
; hiding.
; Note that they will try to do the same thing to you!

; These settings tell the AI how to behave when Suppress is enabled. The first tells the AI the minimum mag size of the weapon
; before suppression will be considered. And the second tells the AI minimum remaining ammo the weapon must have to be valid
; for suppression. Valid range is 0 to 1000. Setting the mag size to 0 will mean the AI will try to use suppression on every
; weapon which is the result you used to get when setting the AI Suppression flag to FALSE.

; Explosive Suppression
;
