This episode happened to me in RC3 "network" battle
against aliens:
"I run out of a door see a red one holding a rocket
launcher. No Tu to hide, so I run towards him in hope
he will at least run away and not use 2nd fire. Noway!
He walks straight up to me, shoots his rocket and drops
dead while my alien keeps kneeling..."
Even though I had a great laugh - please let this not
happen again, not even on difficluty -3

i've introduced a little fix for this - still not the best
but they won't shoot when they hurt themselves now. Please
test and report feedback.

I currently running 2.0-RC4 on my SuSE 10 box in single
player mode, and while I did not see an alien shoot an enemy
at point blank, it did look like he shot the wall. I'm not
100% sure as the camera was on the other side of the wall, a
big cloud of black dust appeared and the alien died. This
may be due to the game being on Very Easy, but they should
at least wait till they have a low moral before they commit
suicide.

I suspect that was 'aliens shooting at breakables', which has been fixed for a while now.
Any recent observations ?

nope - this is not related - it's just that the ai is not watching on the damage radius when shooting (afair)

that can result in a self-damage if the victim is standing close enough.

Uhm...I figured the fix you mentioned in your first reply had already dealt with that, so I was referring to the 'alien shoot at wall' part mentioned two replies later.
