My agent doesn't shoot at the character

Hey, we're going to need more than this to help youCould you share a video recording of your current scene and results ? I can also offer you one screenshare for free to take a look at this directly.
I did this from the video with version 2.
Why am I doing everything according to the video and the documentation and it doesn't work? I understand that the third version is supported but I don't have the money for the third version
It will be the same there, I'm sure of it.
I think the reason is probably this. I don't use the ultimate build. But from the first person
I can't turn on the third face.
To make it work for me, I'll have to buy the full version of the controller.
Because the prefab Aiden works. And the new character doesn't

The asset store page says that the asset needs either UCC, UFPS or TPC, and while I personally always use the Third Person Combat scheme only for them you can in any way create NPCs with either the first or third person perspective. I'll make a quick test on my V2 project and will let you know.

@Lva Phew, what I would have expected to be an easy test turned into an evening-long experimentation 
I ended up with a working agent after so many tries and fiddling around, but need to stop here for tonight and can't make you a video right now.
I have several possible leads for you :
-First, and I know it might sound stupid, please check if your agent has bullets in his inventory - I personally lost a fair amount of time because of that basic mistake !
-Next, before trying to have the agent perform his AI behavior, disable his Behavior Tree and Deathmatch Agent components and try to make him fire his rifle by going to his Use ability and setting its Start Type to Automatic. If he stays stuck in an aiming pose without actually firing, then you're gonna have to compare your weapon settings with Aydan's rifle.
-Last but not least, make sure your agent has two Use abilities, one for Slot 0 and the other for Slot 1, like Aydan (see the attached screenshot). It may sound strange, and maybe you have no intention of using any left-handed weapon, but I assure you that I saw a working agent no longer being able to fire when I removed his Slot 1 Use ability.
I also have one question for you since I don't have the FPS-only version of the asset - on the Item tab of the Character Manager, do you have a Third Person section ?
In any case I hope that all of this helps and that you'll be able to fix your agent with the info I brought you. If you can't then the offer for a screenshare still stands, and I'll make you a video tomorrow evening if you need.
