Pedestrian AI System

Introducing Pedestrian AI System (v2.2.0)

Elevate your game's realism with the Pedestrian AI System. This feature-rich system is designed to seamlessly integrate into your project, providing a comprehensive solution for implementing advanced pedestrian behaviours. Whether you're creating an open-world game, a city simulation, or any project requiring dynamic NPC movements, our Pedestrian AI System empowers you to create lifelike and immersive urban environments with ease.

Features

• Advanced Pedestrian AI Features: Leverage sophisticated AI algorithms to simulate realistic pedestrian behaviours.
• Bounding Box Movements: Ensure smooth and collision-free navigation using bounding box techniques.
• Waypoint-Based Movements: Design precise and controlled pedestrian paths with waypoint systems.
• Spline-Based Movements: Create dynamic and flexible movement patterns using spline paths.
• Spline Crowd (Mass Scale NPC Spawns): Handle large crowds effortlessly with spline-based mass NPC spawning.
• Dynamic Path Switching on Path Intersections: Enable pedestrians to choose optimal paths dynamically at intersections.
• NPC Collision and Obstacle Avoidance: Ensure realistic pedestrian interactions with robust collision and obstacle avoidance systems.
• Landscape-Aligned Spline Paths: Align pedestrian paths seamlessly with varied terrain and landscapes.
• AI Responds to World State Invokers: Integrate real-world logic, such as traffic lights and events, to influence pedestrian behaviour.
• Closed Loop Path Following: Maintain continuous and smooth pedestrian loops for endless movement cycles.
• Player Proximity-Based NPC Spawns: Optimise performance by spawning NPCs based on player proximity.
• Component-Based Pluggable Architecture: Enjoy easy customisation and extension with modular components.
• Data Driven Architecture: Follows a data table based highly customisable and extensible design.
• Character Collision Block Reacts: When characters collide with each other, a blocking reaction animation is played.
