Behavior

Delta Six, three Tangos ahead. Let them pass or take them down. Your choice.

Regardless of the game, creating an AI for a game, even in its most simple form can be a daunting task. Luckily there's a bunch of smart people out there that have developed tools that help create, visualize and organize behavior system.

One of the most widely used system are the Behavior Trees, which were used in the first Halo game and popularized it due to its flexibility and power.

Although FSM (from now on; Finite State Machines) are easier to understand and more intuitive, they quickly become unmaintainable due to the large amount of connections and dependencies. That's why we've chosen to use BT (Behavior Trees from now on)
