AI Soldiers
AI Soldiers should now correctly spawn during the Prologue stages of Battlefield 2042. They were too busy reading the instruction manuals we gave them, and we’ve kicked them out and told them to get to work.

We’ve done an audio pass on the X6-Infiltration Device, specifically aimed at addressing audio-overload where players place multiple devices in a small area.
Reduced the rate at which the X6-Infiltration Device registers audio pings upon entering and exiting an area.
Added more nuance to the noise emitted from the X6-Infiltration Device, resulting in it no longer producing a continuous static noise.

M18 Claymore sensors should no longer trigger through walls.

Resolved an issue that resulted in SOFLAM targets on neutral vehicles being shared across both teams.
