  • Behavior Based Artificial Intelligence in a Village Environment
    Teknik och samhälle Datavetenskap Examensarbete 15 högskolepoäng, grundnivå Behavior Based Artificial Intelligence in a Village Environment Beteendebaserad Artificiell Intelligens i en bymiljö Tim Lindstam Anton Svensson Examen: Kandidatexamen 180 hp Handledare: José María Font Huvudämne: Datavetenskap Examinator: Steve Dahlskog Program: Spelutveckling Template: www.emena.org/ Datum för slutseminarium: 2017-06-01 files/springerformat.doc Behavior Based Artificial Intelligence in a Village Environment Tim Lindstam, Anton Svensson Game Development Program, Computer Science and Media Technology, Malmö University, Sweden Abstract. Autonomous agents, also known as AI agents, are staples in modern video games. They take a lot of roles, everything from being quest-givers in roleplaying games, to opposing forces in action- and shooter games. Crafting an AI that is not only easy to create, but also retains humanlike and believable behavior, has always represented a challenge to the development industry, and has in several cases ended up with open world games using AI systems that limit the AI agents to simple moving patterns. In this thesis, a form of AI systems more commonly used in simulation games such as The Sims video game series, are taken and implemented in an environment that could possibly be seen in an open world game. After the implementation, a set of tests were performed on a group of testers which resulted in the insight that a majority of the testers, when asked to compare their experience to other games, found this implementation to feel more lifelike and realistic. Keywords: AI, game development, game AI, behavior tree 1 Introduction The world of games is not only inhabited by the players of video games, but also by autonomous agents.
