The six compat addons connect AEE to host mods. Each addon loads only when its host mod is present. Each uses only the host mod’s public API. This page describes what AEE publishes into each host mod and what it reads.

compat_ace3

compat_ace3 disables ACE3’s own weather tick (ace_weather_enabled = false), so AEE’s state writes persist. It publishes AEE temperature, humidity, overcast, and the AEE heat index and WBGT into the ace_weather_current* state. It maps AEE WBGT and dehydration onto ACE medical vitals:

  • ace_medical_status_fnc_addMedicationAdjustment adjusts heart rate, peripheral flow, and pain.
  • ace_medical_status_fnc_setCardiacArrestState triggers at WBGT above 32 with risk above 0.8.
  • ace_medical_fnc_addDamageToUnit applies heat exposure with the “burn” damage type.

The weather writes run on every machine (server and clients). The medical mapping runs on the local unit only.

ace_weather_currentHeatIndex and ace_weather_currentWBGT are AEE extensions: stock ACE3 defines and reads neither.

Verified against: ACE3 master.

compat_acm

compat_acm normalises aee_core_cbrnPersistence to a 0..1 contamination level. The persistence value is a decay modifier in the range 0.225..2.1. The addon drives the ACM_CBRN_chemical_sarin_* state. Buildup clamps to ACM’s 0..100 range.

AEE also registers an optional hypoxia duty factor on ACE’s ace_medical_vitals_spo2DutyList, which ACM reads each vitals tick as a breathing-effectiveness multiplier. The factor engages only above AEE hypoxia risk 0.8, so it does not double-count ACM’s own altitude model. ACM has no thermal or dehydration subsystem, so CBRN and the duty factor are the full integration surface.

Verified against: ACM 1.4.8.0.

compat_acre2

compat_acre2 registers an ACRE2 custom signal callback with acre_api_fnc_setCustomSignalFunc. The callback returns [signalPct 0..1, signalDBm]. AEE radio propagation becomes a dB shift applied to the dBm value. The percent is recomputed over the receiver sensitivity window.

compat_kat

compat_kat drives two KAT circulation arrays. kat_circulation_bodyFluid is a 5-compartment mL array: [ECB, ECP, SRBC, ISP, total]. AEE dehydration drains the ECP and ISP compartments. Values clamp at or above 100 mL. kat_circulation_bloodGas is a 6-element array: [PaCO2, PaO2, SpO2, HCO3, pH, EtCO2]. AEE hypoxia risk maps to a target SpO2 (97 minus 32 times the risk, clamped 60..97) and a consistent PaO2. KAT overwrites both arrays every vitals tick, so the addon re-applies them from the ace_medical_handleUnitVitals event, which fires after each KAT write.

Verified against: KAT source v3.2.1.

compat_realweather

compat_realweather reads weather.json from the mission folder. The file holds temperatureC, humidityPct, pressureHpa, and overcast. The addon publishes these values into the aee_core_* state. It sets realWeatherActive to gate AEE’s simulation tick. Engine overcast applies on the server only.

Verified against: the mission-side weather file format.

compat_tfar

compat_tfar scales TFAR transmission range from AEE radio propagation. It sets the per-unit player variable tf_sendingDistanceMultiplicator. The scale applies to sending only, so an equal receiving scale does not cancel it.

Verified against: TFAR 1.x source.
