User:CusTom3 bot's design

From modwiki

I am starting to design my bot. following the architecture laid out in mr elusive's thesis, i have decided to start by understanding the "first" layer as much as possible.

the first layer includes two sections. the area awareness system and the User:CusTom3 basic actions.

level 2 includes many different sub systems. the only one i have looked at in depth so far is "Navigation". you can find some of the research i have done over in the annotated api under the ai folder.

at the same time i am reading a great book, Programming Game AI by Example. chapter 2 is a great read on finite state machines. in fact, looking at the "AI Network" in mr elusive's paper it looks just like Mat's FSM implemented in C. i will be looking at using this approach as the main "brain" for my bot. so there is some level 3 research going on as well. --CusTom3
