Resource Gathering AI Development

In this video, Code Monkey demonstrates how to create a simple resource gatherer AI using C#. The tutorial begins with setting up the scene and creating a basic gatherer AI script. The video then progresses to implementing basic AI logic for resource gathering, testing the AI, and making it more adaptable. Finally, advanced AI logic is implemented, and the AI is tested with multiple resource nodes to ensure functionality. The video concludes with a brief overview of the AI's behavior and a preview of the next video.

What is the primary goal of the resource gatherer AI project introduced in the video?

• To design an AI that can navigate a maze

• To create a complex AI for a battle simulation

• To develop a simple AI that gathers resources and stores them

• To build an AI that can interact with other players

What is the first step in creating the gatherer AI script?

• Creating a database for resource management

• Implementing complex decision-making algorithms

• Designing a user interface for the AI

• Adding fields to store the gold node and storage transform

How does the AI determine when to play the mining animation?

• When the unit is within 5 units of any object

• When the unit receives a command from the player

• When the unit is idle and at the resource node

• When the unit is within 10 units of the storage

What change is made to make the AI more adaptable?

• Implementing a state-based system

• Introducing a new user interface

• Increasing the number of resource nodes

• Adding more complex animations

What is the initial state of the AI when it starts?

• Idle

• Gathering resources

• Moving to storage

• Searching for enemies

How does the AI decide to move towards the storage?

• When the inventory amount is greater than zero

• When the inventory amount is zero

• When the player issues a command

• When the storage is full

What happens when the AI reaches the storage?

• It waits for a new command

• It plays a victory animation

• It resets the gold inventory amount to zero

• It starts gathering resources again

What is tested in the final section of the video?

• The AI's ability to fight enemies

• The AI's ability to build structures

• The AI's performance with multiple resource nodes

• The AI's interaction with other players

How does the AI select a resource node when multiple nodes are available?

• It selects a node randomly from a list

• It chooses the node closest to the storage

• It always goes to the first node

• It waits for player input to choose

What is the next step mentioned for the AI development in the video?

• Implementing a combat system

• Tracking resource amounts

• Adding more animations

• Improving the user interface
