Maks Maisak – Hierarchical Task Network Planning AI Features

• Hierarchical Task Network Planning: This core feature allows AI to break down complex goals into smaller, more manageable sub-goals, creating a hierarchical structure for planning. This approach enhances the AI’s ability to handle intricate tasks and adapt to changing situations.

• Visual Graph Editor: The plugin provides an intuitive visual interface for designing and visualizing the AI’s behavior. This makes it easier to understand, create, and modify AI behaviors, streamlining the development process.

• Blackboard Integration: By seamlessly integrating with the Blackboard system, the plugin allows for efficient communication and data sharing between different AI components and with the game world, enabling more informed and context-aware decision-making.

• Customizable Nodes: Developers can create custom Tasks, Decorators, and Services in both C++ and Blueprints, offering high flexibility to tailor the AI to specific game requirements and behaviors.

• Composable Behaviors: The ability to create subnetworks allows for the construction of reusable behavior patterns, promoting modularity, reducing redundancy, and making it easier to manage complex AI systems.

• Flexible Planning: The plugin supports a spectrum of planning approaches, ranging from rigid, pre-defined sequences to highly flexible, any-order planning. This gives developers control over the AI’s autonomy and allows them to balance predictability with adaptability.

• Cost-Based/Priority-Based Planning: The AI can evaluate and select plans based on factors such as efficiency, risk, and importance, leading to more intelligent and strategic decision-making.

• Parallel Planning: The plugin enables the AI to explore multiple potential plans simultaneously, potentially leading to faster and more robust solutions, especially in time-critical situations.
