ReturnFunction NameDescriptionVote
voidallowBeingTargetedIf enabled, enemies will target this soldier whenever they see him. If disabled, the soldier will be completly ignored by enemies. Toghether with allowCheckForEnemies, this function is helpful to script systems like Civilian or Non combatant medics. 243
