Remove AI default cooks grenades

A simple mod that stops AI from cooking grenades for ~0.4 seconds before throwing, ensuring instant throws.


Overview

AI in the game uses QuickGrenadeThrowHandsController, which by default cooks grenades for ~0.4 seconds. This mod removes that for AI.


Observed Cooking Times

When logging grenade creation times from BaseGrenadeHandsController.vmethod_2(), AI cooks for ~0.4s, while players cook for 0s:

How It Works

Resets the cooking timer to 0 before throwing via a PatchPrefix on OnDropGrenadeAction().


Default Behavior

  1. In StartCountdown(), the controller initializes a countdown timer from -1 to 0.
  2. During each update, the controller accumulates time to the timer.
  3. When OnDropGrenadeAction() is called to create and throw the grenade, it uses the accumulated time as the cooking duration.


Mod Behavior

This mod uses a PatchPrefix on QuickGrenadeThrowHandsController.Class1162.OnDropGrenadeAction() to reset the accumulated cooking time to 0 before the grenade is thrown, effectively eliminating the AI's default 0.4-second cooking delay.

  • I must say I am dumb, I dont get it. I thought we all would like scavs to NOT throw nades so fast... but to indeed LEAVE the delay... make it even bigger actually... before the throw... as IRL... you gotta take the nade -> take the pin off -> aim -> throw... it takes time... I am not being sarcastic, I really dunno what this mod means. Cooking nade - like it will blow faster? But dont I read that they also will throw the nades faster? Which I would not like.
    Anyway, I myself am confused :)
