Kavat AI needs some work - Unresponsive and freezing on idle

[16Bitman]

I've made a 1 minute video showing 2 very common issues with Kavat AI.

First I show that it can open lockers, but then it refuses to open others.

Then it gets into a fight, after multiple of attempts it finally hits the enemy, that has been staying in the same spot, only rotating its position ONCE, then it completely shuts down ("frozen" in the idle animation) and lets itself get killed.

The companion AI's are always were problematic and overall these needs tweaks. Kubrows do the same while the sentinels have less survivability but still those also needs AI tweaks.

You say very common but I've never had my kavat not open a locker... and also you were not moving during the fight and the AI tends to respond better if you are moving. Not saying there isn't some work to be done on the AI, I just don't think it is a huge concern.

I had mine idling for around 40 minutes in a mission, couldn't get it to move at all. I just left it as is and went on to save the planet. Must admit, though, I rarely pay attention to the companion and some wild stuff can go off while unattended. Keep your companions at bay!
