We’ve made a new demo with a full ecosystem of cats and mice and humans with oak trees. The humans have jobs like driver, oak gatherer and yes programmer. The cats hunt and eat mice and never die. The mice breed a lot and can be eaten. They eat oak too and naturally new oaks are created too. Humans live and work and go to the bathroom and do other things like stroking cats. Cats have factions and greet each other but they only greet the factions they like. Each person sleeps in his/her own bed or the couch. We did not give them considerations for not using the bathhroom at the same time just for fun.

All this is made using our Wise Feline AI suite and it uses Utility AI, Influence maps, AI Tags, Smart Objects and blackboards. It heavily uses built-in actions and considerations and the sample doesn’t have lots of custom code. It’s in fact less than 300 lines of actual code.

You can read more about the sample here or watch a video description of it here. There is a smaller version of the demo which works with the Lite version of the Utility AI package as well.
