Odd Question (flocking behavior)

by Ron Kapaun · in Torque 3D Professional · 10/03/2013 (3:49 pm) · 3 replies

Hey all, does anyone recall WAYYYY back an AI routine for flocking behavior? I can not seem to find it and I am working on some 'bug' models and effects that could probably use something like that. Any thoughts?

I had a quick look and found AI for centipede? would that be similar to what you were looking for?

Do search for "boids C++ code" that was the one from 1986 or so,
guessing that is the one you are refering to. Intel used it in a demo
many moons ago as well.

Yup - and Programming Game AI by Example by Matt Buckland. Decent intro to basic game AI in general and he covers tracking, interception and flocking pretty early on.
