Abstract

This paper explores a procedural planning system for the control of game agents in real time. The planning methodology we present is based on offline goal-oriented behavioral design, and is implemented as a procedural planning system in real-time. Our design intends to achieve efficiency of planning in order to have smooth run-time animation generation. Our experimental results show that the approach is capable of improving agent control for real-time goal processing in games.
