Plan for Dee

Well, seeing as I need it before I can properly continue, I decided to hunker down and focus on the AI add-on, I've had in mind for a while.
Didn't take as long as I expected, seeing as I had drafted the layout previously, and refined it over about 4 months : )

Basic design is trigger/radius driven, but 90% initial and playable settings can be done through the editor, with immediate visual/game feedback.
Hooks, and console commands available to override most settable options)

Some of the results are here:

Layout's pretty flexible too.
- C++ class templates for actions
- FSM design
- AI Manager type use, where the AI takes direction/settings from a static source
allowing a quick re-point of the source to change most AI attributes
- Enter/Execute/Exit style states
- Basic functions imbedded in C++
- Script exposed for easy additional customization
- Seems not to have any issues with memory or load..so far

So far I've managed to implement the basic Idle/Animate/Follow/Avoid/Sounds/LookAtPlayer & Attack options.
Just need to finish up on Activate/De-Activate (Hide), Waypoint Wander (in C++), PathFollow & Dialog actions.
