BugBots and AI

For Game 3 our whole class was divided into groups of work. I was assigned to programming specifically AI. I worked on the AI with another person who worked on Humanoids, whereas I worked on Non-Humanoid AI.

BugBots

• Little AI's which alert each other to the player's position.
• They continually chase the player until they no longer have seen him for 15 seconds.
• They are able to climb up walls due to nav links between levels.

Hives

• These spawn the BugBot AI's and assign the AI's a tag to organize them into hive groups.
• Hives have health and can be killed by the player.
• Hives continually spawn BugBots until the maximum amount of BugBots for that hive are reached.
