FAI - Fish AI & Flocks

reFeatures of the AI system:

Main

• An all-in-one script contains 4 behaviours and many features to control AIs.
• 4 main behaviours (Aggressive, Neutral, Passive, Passive Flee)
• Flee or keep attacking on low health.
• Wandering.
• Attack other entities.
• Recognize and don't attack or flee from entities of the same type.
• Forget the enemy once far enough and after a set number of seconds.
• Damage enemies either from script or animation event.
• Attack chance.
• Field Of View and Line of Sight enemy detection.
• Attack and movement animations blending.
• Sounds for different AI states.
• Optimized to only work once visible on a camera.
• Assign event listeners with no coding required.
• Field of view visualization in editor.
• Spawning.

Navigation

• A written-from-zero navigation system for smooth movement.
• Smooth steering.
• Obstacle avoidance.
• Move only when inside water volume.

Vitals

• Damaging.
• Health.
• Health regeneration.
• Resistance.
• Body decomposition.
• Supports ragdoll.
• Play sounds on death.

Features of the Flock system:

• Complex flocking behaviour based on 4 simple behaviours (Align, Separate, Cohere, and Follow).
• Obstacle Avoidance.
• Water surface contact avoidance.
• Health
• Body decomposition.
• Spawning.
• Optimizations.
• 80% of the processing runs on the GPU (4 main behaviours), while 20% runs on the CPU (Obstacle avoidance) for best performance.
• A simple shader to procedurally animate the movement of fish.

Editor

• Extremely easy-to-use and well-designed editor windows to help you create AIs and flock units in minutes.

Demo

• A simple script to control some of the demo scenes' properties (Spawned flocks counts, camera movement speed...)
• 3 modelled, animated, ready-to-use AIs: Whale (Neutral), Shark (Aggressive), and Mahi Mahi (Passive Flee).
• 2 ready-to-use Flock Units: Mackerel and Emperor Angelfish.
• 1 Demo scene for AIs.
• 1 Demo scene for Flock Units.
• A water enter/exit script controller to create the underwater illusion.
• A over/under water based audio system (Head fish sound only when the camera is underwater).

Dependencies

• Post Processing Stack

I am actively working on adding more features but I can't promise anything about their release date, here are the top priority ones: Fixed Flock Group Count, Fixed Frame Rate Update(Optimization), and Flocks Attacking/Fleeing AIs.
