like the topic says. how do i create AI for my npc(s) in my game

Just reverse engineer someone else's source code. I doubt you're trying to make a profit off of this game else you'd know how to program it your self...
Lots of loops I'm guessing. :( Friend and I made a text-based game back in 8th grade, it was fairly straight-forward but what you'll need is likely some randomizers and events based on those randomizers, as well as some sort of response mechansim.
There are countless books and films out there that warn us of what will happen if we give birth to AI, yet people like you still try for it. No sir, I will not assist you in this doomsday endeavor.
[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]Lots of loops I'm guessing. :( Friend and I made a text-based game back in 8th grade, it was fairly straight-forward but what you'll need is likely some randomizers and events based on those randomizers, as well as some sort of response mechansim. This is actually a good point; one thing I learned when doing AI for a pong game 10 or 15 years back is that behavior should cluster but not be flatly deterministic. In my case, introducing a short but random delay in response time to the ball changing trajectories suddenly made the opponent about a million times more convincing, as well as suddenly becoming possible to beat, as opposed to when it perfectly followed the trajectory at all times.
[QUOTE="kweeni"]If Enemy.Spotted = True Then Do Badguy.ShootEnemy(You) Loop until You = Dead End If There you go. :Djeremiah06
void enemyAi(eneAi)
{
if (enemy.spotted == true)
{
while(enemy.health =/= 0)
badguy.attack = true
}
else
badguy.walkRoute
}
Tut tut, failed to type your argument, and it's not used anywhere in the method body. Also "!=" is the inequality comparison operator and walkRoute needs function specifiers to be called. Son, I am disappoint :x
OK you got my on the "!=" however eneAi is an object so calling it in the function allows me to use all of its member functions...jeremiah06
Ah, but since you aren't referring to it anywhere in the scope of this function, you are just pushing a reference on the call stack, degrading performance minutely for no reason :P

ehhh....yeah....that's a little to complicated for me xD Its not accurate there are tons of mistakes... but its C++ Yeah I know what it is. :P But I never used it before. We only use Visual Basic at school lol.
