Utility Intelligence - v2 (GO): Utility-Based AI Framework

Documentation | Discussions | Join Us On Discord

Utility Intelligence is a robust and powerful utility-based AI framework. Unlike traditional AI techniques such as BTs, FSMs, and GOAP, which rely on conditions for decision-making, our agents evaluate all possible decisions and choose the one with the highest score to execute.

Additionally, each decision is scored per target, ensuring that the best target is selected for the chosen decision. This approach makes our agents behave more naturally than those using other AI techniques 🤩.

Moreover, Utility Intelligence provides the Decision Making Preview feature, which allows you to preview which decision is selected directly in the editor without having to enter Play Mode. This feature can save you a lot of time when designing your agents’ behaviors.

💎HIGHLIGHT FEATURES

🛠️An intuitive and powerful Editor

We offer an intuitive and powerful Editor with many robust features that allow you to create complex AI Behaviors and Logic with ease:

• Decision Making Preview: Preview which decision is selected directly in the editor, without having to enter Play Mode.
• Intuitive Consideration Editor: See how the input value and the response curve affect the consideration score without having to visualize it in your head.
• Blackboard Variables: Share information between multiple components, such as inputs, input normalization, and action tasks, using Blackboard Variables.
• Runtime Information: View the current status of multiple components during runtime. It is similar to Decision Making Preview but includes additional runtime information, such as the best target for each decision, and the execution status of decisions and action tasks.
• Runtime Editing: Tweak your AI Behaviors during runtime for testing purposes without having to replay your game.
• Runtime Editor: The Utility Intelligence Editor can function both at editor time and at runtime in builds. This feature enables users to adjust variables in the Utility Intelligence Editor to observe how they affect the agent’s decisions for testing purposes in builds.
• JSON Editing: Manually edit the Intelligence Data in JSON format using your Text Editor, then import it to the Intelligence Asset.
• Lockable Editor: Lock the Intelligence Editor to a specific Utility Agent. This is useful when you want to keep viewing a utility agent’s information while inspecting or editing another GameObject in the Inspector Window.
• Field Attributes: Show/hide and group your fields in the Intelligence Editor.
• Dark & Light themes: The Intelligence Editor supports both Dark and Light themes and will automatically match the theme of the Unity Editor.
