Indirect control over subordinate units
PublicationDeveloping a game universe usually involves creation of various units which can be both, encountered by a player or controlled by him. There is a number of works considering autonomous behaviours of units wandering around the game world. When it comes to the units controlled by the player, they often are lack of autonomy and are strictly controlled by the player. This paper presents a concept of units behaviour depending on their...
