FYI. You can always update to the newest +AI executable from Sevenfm. I update immediately as the new executables are released even when playing a campaign.

Yeah, I had never really used the +AI executables before.

As soon as I played this mod, I instantly noticed how the AI was actually not as lame as I've previously known them to be. Setting up my "usual" ambush methods wasn't really that useful anymore.

I'll be keeping an eye out on releases for the AI from now on.

Grenade bonus works for throwing skill in +AI:
[Throwing]
; Bonus CtH when throwing grenades
CTH_WHEN_THROWING_GRENADES = 30
; Percentage APs reduction when throwing grenades
APS_NEEDED_TO_THROW_GRENADES_REDUCTION = 25
; Percentage bonus to max range when throwing grenades
MAX_RANGE_TO_THROW_GRENADES = 10

After verifying this in-game.. I was wondering if it's normal for the Demolitions trait to ALSO have a grenade throwing bonus?

When playing this mod (or any other mod), is the skills setting ini in the Data folder belonging to the said mod the ONLY file to provide the settings or is it also affected by some other file?

Why I ask this is because my file looks like this:

\Data-AV\Skills_Settings.INI
;******************************************
[Throwing]

; Bonus CtH when throwing grenades
CTH_WHEN_THROWING_GRENADES = 30

; Percentage APs reduction when throwing grenades
APS_NEEDED_TO_THROW_GRENADES_REDUCTION = 30

; Percentage bonus to max range when throwing grenades
MAX_RANGE_TO_THROW_GRENADES = 25

; Percentage bonus to speed when throwing blades
THROW_BLADE_APS_REDUCTION = 25

etc...
;******************************************

;******************************************
[Demolitions]

; Percentage bonus to damage inflicted by bombs and mines
DAMAGE_OF_PLACED_BOMBS_AND_MINES = 33

; Percentage bonus to attaching detonators to bombs
ATTACH_DETONATOR_CHECK_BONUS = 66

; Percentage bonus when planting bombs and mines
PLANT_AND_REMOVE_BOMBS_AND_MINES_BONUS = 66

; Makes bombs and mines harder to detect by enemies
PLACED_BOMBS_AND_MINES_DETECTION_DIFFICULTY_BONUS = 5

; Increased chance of using shaped charge successfully
SHAPED_CHARGE_DAMAGE_MULTIPLIER = 5


;******************************************


..as you can see, the demolitions trait as no settings for grenades, yet in game, when hovering over the demolitions trait (existing or new game, IMP and in laptop mercenary view) it still shows a bonus for grenades.

Oh, and some of the settings in my file are different because I had simply cut/pasted the info from Demolitions.
