Do door jams just not work?

[A Lamp]

I'm trying to get an S level on sins of the father and I've had 3 separate times when I've placed a door jam, but the AI just opens in like normal. All 3 times It has cost my run.

Nearly any time I order my team to place a wedge I have to repeat the command.
They never just opened the door in my game but something is seriously wrong with the
Team AI at the moment. Also they don`t react to "move to order" and often get shot without reaction at all. This costs me all of my runs meanwhile..

Thinking about putting the game down and touch it again when it`s patched and fixed
I am loosing too much time because of broken Team mechanics.

It`s anoying because you could put all effort in, have a perfect run and after 20 minutes in the mission everything falls apart because the team doesn`t work.

100 % Swat working properly is essential in a swat game.

Its random if they work or not
I've seen quite a few people talking about them

George M., like members of the LSPD, is underpaid, and as such, will only work sporadically. /j

Joke aside, never had problems with the wedges itself, only had to repeat the wedge command a few times as my AI mates just did not want to wedge the door.
However, I have seen clips where wedges just don't work. Yeah, something funky here.

Im starting to think maybe the AI goes through the motion of placing a wedge, but never actually place one? A lot of the times I cover the AI while it places the wedge but I never visually verify its there.

I always place wedges myself. I've only had one experience where an AI was able to open a wedged door. Sometimes they get bugged too, like if a civilian runs through a double door while you're wedging it, it'll get stuck halfway open

[calabacina]

never had any problems getting AI to put wedges. the problem seems to be that the enemy AI is capable of "ignoring" them, at least I saw this in a video, so far it hasn't happened to me anyways...

It's random. AI can ignore it if it feels like so in every mission.
Here's an example of a crapshoot situation in Valley due to it:

It happens more often than not, most people are likely too overwhelmed to notice or forego applying wedges entirely. They tell themselves "they made noise" and that they need to "get good", unknowingly leaving it up to RNG.

I should of recorded my attempts when the AI bybased the door wedges, but since i was doing an S level run every time it happened and killed one of my AI officers I just ALT f4 which means the reply never saved. (well at the very least I haven't been able to find them in the reply folder if they do save after an ALT f4)

Just had an instance where the door jam I placed didn't work as intended.
Half opened, but the enemy was still able to shoot from there.
