Section 01
How AI Settings Work
Two independent systems: performance and difficulty.
1.1
Performance vs Difficulty
IRR's AI settings are split into two completely separate systems. People get them confused because both have sliders labeled Low/Mid/High. They do different things.
AI Simulation LevelPerformance setting. Controls how often the game updates bot movement. Think frame rate for AI.
Difficulty PresetsHow deadly the AI is — reaction time, accuracy, perception. This is the one that makes raids easy or brutal.
You can run High Simulation Level with Low difficulty, or Low Simulation with High difficulty, or any combination. They don't influence each other.
1.2
Where to Find Them
Both live under Settings → AI from the main menu or the pause menu. You can change them between raids — the setting applies on your next deploy.
Tip
Difficulty is per-raid. You can flip between Low and High between deployments without affecting anything you've already extracted.
