AI and Games Jam 2021: Squad Movement
Contribution to the AI and Games Jam 2021.
Tried to create squad movement behaviour similar to popular RTS games like Company of Heroes:
- Hierarchical Formation
- Core Team + two Fireteams (left/right)
- Leapfrogging to points of interests
- Virtual Leader
Not more than a Prototype.
After-Jam Updates are in:
- Automatic Formation-Type and Spacing change (e.g. Column in tight space, Wedge in wide open area.
- Adjustable Formation-Type and Spacing
- Toggle visible Formations Locations
Resources I used:
AI Game Programming Wisdom 4 - Company of Heroes Squad Formations Explained
Ian Millington - AI for Games
Mat Buckland - Programming Game AI by Example
Many thanks to the contributors of the Vassal40k Mod for the Vassal Engine for letting me use their artwork.
