<p>AI -&gt; AI Dev</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>= Unit grouping heuristic =<br /> <br /> == Summary ==<br /> <br /> The goal of this heuristic is to concentrate units together, to concentrate firepower optimally. In addition, the units will automatically retreat when necessary to reorg.<br /> <br /> This heuristic can be given a group of units, a target, and will automatically:<br /> *group the units together physically<br /> *move the units to the target<br /> *fall back to reorg when necessary<br /> *continue the attack<br /> <br /> This heuristic was created by Hugh Perkins<br /> <br /> == Details ==<br /> <br /> *Select a target to attack<br /> *Find the 5 attacking units closest to the target<br /> *Measure the distance between the 5th and the 1st closest unit<br /> *If the distance is more than some threshold, order the tanks to move to the position of the third unit<br /> *Otherwise order the units to move to the target<br /> <br /> The behavior is to form a pack of 5 which pushes into the enemy. Other units will move towards it over time. If the two leading tanks are destroyed, new tanks will keep moving towards the remaining pack. If a third tank is destroyed, the pack will retreat towards the new third-closest unit, which is probably back at base somewhere.<br /> <br /> *Computationally it runs in Od, where d is number of attacking units<br /> *Memorywise, it uses constant memory O.<br /> <br /> == Example implementation, C# ==<br /> <br /> See packcoordinators/AttackPackCoordinator.cs in CSAI<br /> [[Category:AI Dev]]</div>
