You can have guards operating machinery, sleeping, talking - whatever you can think of. Then, you design around these scenarios.
Things like that can help bring the level to life, especially when the AI isn’t very good. Save a patrolling guard for something special and use well placed ambushes carefully for effect.

Thanks, I think that's a practical way forward. IIRC The TR3 Nevada guards were able to patrol and detect Lara depending on their position triggering gunfire or another action?
But yeah, having seemingly pushed every option, it might be time to reduce scope.
