دانلود کتاب Unity 5.x Game AI Programming Cookbook

Key FeaturesEmpower your agent with decision making capabilities using advanced minimaxing and Negamaxing techniquesDiscover how AI can be applied to a wide range of games to make them more interactive.Instigate vision and hearing abilities in your agent through collider based and graph based systemsBook DescriptionUnity 5 comes fully packaged with a toolbox of powerful features to help game and app developers create and implement powerful game AI. Leveraging these tools via Unity's API or built-in features allows limitless possibilities when it comes to creating your game's worlds and characters. This practical Cookbook covers both essential and niche techniques to help you be able to do that and more.This Cookbook is engineered as your one-stop reference to take your game AI programming to the next level. Get to grips with the essential building blocks of working with an agent, programming movement and navigation in a game environment, and improving your agent's decision making and coordination mechanisms - all through hands-on examples using easily customizable techniques. Discover how to emulate vision and hearing capabilities for your agent, for natural and humanlike AI behaviour, and improve them with the help of graphs. Empower your AI with decision-making functions through programming simple board games such as Tic-Tac-Toe and Checkers, and orchestrate agent coordination to get your AIs working together as one.What you will learnUse techniques such as A*and A*mbush to empower your agents with path finding capabilities.Create a representation of the world and make agents navigate itConstruct decision-making systems to make the agents take different actionsMake different agents coordinate actions and create the illusion of technical behaviorSimulate senses and apply them in an awareness systemDesign and implement AI in board games such as Tic-Tac-Toe and CheckersImplement efficient prediction mechanism in your agents with algorithms such as N-Gram predictor and naive Bayes classifierUnderstand and analyze how the influence maps work.About the AuthorJorge Palacios is a software developer with seven years of professional experience.
