Overview[]

The AI companion is a friendly tank that can help the player during the game. It can be activated by selecting the appropriate dropdown option for players 2, 3, and 4 before starting a campaign.

Strategy[]

  • Despite being computerized and imperfect, this tank will try to help the player in every way possible. The tank tends to fire at the enemies without a real strategy and dodge enemy shots as quickly as possible. AI Companions will likely place mines in front of every destructible wall it finds nearby. As the AI Companion can effectively shut down problematic tanks, it is advised to somewhat loosely follow it just to use the combined firepower to deal with the mission.

Main abilities[]

It can:

  1. Place mines
  2. Resurrect the player by touching them shortly after they are hit by a bullet
  3. Shoot enemy tanks
  4. Calculate bounce shots
  5. Boost to dodge enemies
  6. Pathfind to distant enemies or enemies behind cover. (Note: The pathfinding is not perfect and the tank can sometimes get stuck in a certain area.)
  7. sometimes resurrect the player but wont if too dangerous (also a note: sometimes even if u need reviving right next to one it wont help you)

Trivia[]

  • The AI companion was introduced in the version 0.7.7 of the game
  • The AI companion is arguably the most hated tank in the game due to its poorly constructed AI.
  • As of version 0.7.9 it has the ability to pathfind.
  • It is one of the most heavily buffed tanks in game, almost constantly receiving buffs or additions to its AI in almost every update, due to its distinct role as an ally to the player. Most of these changes prevent the AI companion from actually harming the player due to negligence or oversights in the AI.
