단일 플레이어, 로컬 & 온라인 멀티플레이어용 봇

봇은 멀티플레이어 게임의 성공을 위해 엄청나게 중요할 수 있습니다. 룸을 채우는 데 사용할 수 있지만, 실행 중인 게임 세션을 떠난 플레이어를 대체하는 데도 사용할 수 있습니다.

Quantum Bot SDK를 사용하면 이러한 작업이 완벽하게 수행됩니다. 플레이어가 연결을 끊으면 봇이 즉시 작업을 인계받으며 플레이어는 간단히 잠시 후에 다시 참여할 수 있습니다.

더 좋은 것은, 시간 절약입니다. 봇의 코드는 싱글 플레이어나 로컬 멀티플레이어, 온라인 멀티플레이어의 코드와 동일합니다.

소개

이 애드온은 주요한 두 가지로 나누어져 있습니다:

  1. 빠르고 효율적인 방식으로 나마느이 AI 를 생성하고 디플로이 할 수 있는 비주얼 에디터;
  2. 퀀텀 솔루션 기반에 구현된 결정론적 AI 코드.

Bot SDK는 현재 두 개의 AI 모델을 지원합니다:

  1. 계층 무한 상태 머신 (HFSM);
  2. 행동 트리 (BT);
  3. 목적 지향 액션 플래닝 (GOAP);
  4. 유틸리티 이론 (UT);

이 문서에서는 비주얼 에디터의 기능을 나열하고 게임에서 사용하는 방법에 대한 샘플을 제공하는 비주얼 에디터의 사용 방법에 대해 설명합니다.

이 프레임워크를 사용할 때, 사용하려는 AI 모델의 선택은 자신에게 달려 있습니다:

  • 하나의 모델만을 사용하여 모든 봇을 설계할 수 있습니다.
  • HFSM 과 GOAP를 사용한 다른 봇들을 설계할 수 있습니다.
  • 또한 GOAP를 사용하여 어떤 HFSM을 실행할 것인지(또는 그 반대로) 결정하여 두 모델을 결합할 수도 있습니다.

* Compilation
- Removed code which was causing the compilation process to take the double of the time needed
- Improved a lot the compilation time by re-using the previous data assets structure to prevent re-creating assets unnecessarily
 
* Debugging
- Added new toolset for debugging HFSM agents. Its main features are:
Select some Game Object on your Hierarchy tab which represents some HFSM Agent and has the HFSMDebugComponent added to it in order to open its HFSM editor
See what is the current state in which the HFSM Agent is
See what are the last three transitions taken by that HFSM Agent (works hierarchically)
See what are the current states on the left panel, to easily see all of the current states considering the hierarchy
 
* Quantum code
- Created the AIContext, which is used to reference Constants and Config data assets and can be set differently for bots which has the same HFSM but uses different values
- Changed the way that Transition Sets were handled on the HFSM core code
 
* Constants
- Created the Constants menu on the left side part of the editor

* Issues
- Fixed issue on using Events on ANY transitions

- Fixed issue when (de)serializing the XML document. It didn't use InvariantCulture so it would cause errors depending on the machine's localization. Issue happened with some czech localized Windows machines 
- Fixed issue in which OnExit actions would be called right after entering some state which has children states
- Fixed compilation and runtime issues when some states were named the same
- Fixed nodes being in incorrect states if it was created as a result of drawing a new transition. It was generating broken nodes after copying and pasting it

* Unity Assets
- Compiling a HFSM generates both a Blackboard asset and a BlackboardInitializer asset for that agent;
- Fixed redundancy between SettingsDatabase and AssetLinksDatabase assets which led to invalid cast errors;
- Downgraded all assets versions. Assets were previously generated from Unity 2019.1.0f2, now it is generated from Unity 2018.4.0f1 LTS.
 
* GOAP
- Reduced the amount of GOAP re-planning: it now happens when the agent's Goal changes and when the agent's Current State changes
 
* Changes on quantum_code BotSDK folder's content:
- Included the Samples folder with some very simple pre-defined Actions and Decisions
