About behaviors

Here are the behaviors I plan to develop. Behaviors work together for an Agent which coordinate them.

specifications

BehaviorBase

All behaviors have

• units

The units allocated to this behaviour.

All behaviors can

• addUnits

Add a unit to the behavior's units.

• removeUnits

Remove a unit from the behavior's units.

WatchPopulation

Decision take the form of these indicators

• numberOfHousesNeeded

The number of houses which are needed if possible.

Build houses if population capability < 5% of the population OR if the population capability < 100 people

BuildOnDemand

Decision take the form of these indicators

• desiredNumberOfUnits

The desired number of units - builders only, at least one soldier to be able to start any building (women can take it from the foundations).

Build the buildings of the given types when asked to. It comapares the priorities of the requests before starting to build. And adjusts the desiredNumberOfUnits depending on the requests.

A request is made at least of

• building type
• priority

And can include

• position and rotation
• allowNeiborhood

If false, build at the exact position, which may be impossible, then do not build anything. If true, then build near the position if the exact position is not buildable.

When the position is not provided, it builds in circles around the cityCenterPoint, with circles of a reafius equal to N x DISTANCE_BETWEEN_CIRCLES (0 < N < ...)

The cityCenterPoint is computed at start and is in the line of the Civic Center and the center of the map, at a distance of CITY_CENTER_DISTANCE_FROM_CIVIC_CENTER.

PrepareDefense

Decision take the form of these indicators

• neededBuildings

Array of buildings which are needed to defend the city Each element has the details of the needed building, i.e. position, rotation, priority, type...

Build defenses, i.e. walls and towers around the city when

• resources > MIN_RESOURCE_TO_BUILD_DEFENSES
• and population > MIN_POPULATION_TO_BUILD_DEFENSES

The pattern follows circles around the Civic Center and is made of 1 empty space and NUM_TOWERS_BETWEEN_GATES times this pattern:

• 1 tower
• NUM_WALLS_BETWEEN_TOWERS

if (pop limit reached) -> build houses

if (need workers) -> create more workers

if (need resources) -> if (need food) -> if (domestic animal near) -> hunt

-> if (fruit tree near) -> forage

-> if (farm near) -> farm

-> else -> build farm

-> else -> if (resource site near) -> gather

-> else -> build dropsite

if (idle workers) -> give orders

else -> balance economy for higher level plans
