How much Reaction Fire?
H-Hour:
Current code should select lowest TU firemode by default, but you can choose which firemode to use in reaction. I'm almost certain I've witnessed this in action in 2.5, or else my sniper got very lucky with a snap shot.

It seems though that both need to be in it's (alien's) line of sight, the acting soldier and the RF-targeted soldier.

Then someone needs to check the player side code, because our soldiers don't RF anything but the current actor regardless of range or vision. I have seen several maps where soldiers shoot past immobile aliens towards the current actor. That's where my theory came from.

I believe what you describe is the intended implementation in aDuke's reaction fire model for 2.4. This was one of the things he changed, so people could have memories of it working differently.

I was referring to aliens shooting at the player's soldiers. AI-controlled alien RF works different from player's soldiers RF?

I don't believe so. aDuke will have to speak up if I'm wrong.
