Building a better RTS AI. The third map
I have two state machines. They are pretty much the same. I have two AI players. One state machine for each player. The state machines are for base building.I have three maps. One map for AI player 1 and one map for AI player 2. Because the state machines are identical the base building takes place the same for both players. They evolve the same at the same time.On the third map I have a third player.Player 1 has advanced AI or emergent AI. Player 2 is scri

"using namespace" support?
Hello! In my projects, I frequently use AngelScript, and one limitation Ive noticed is the absence of a "using namespace <name>" feature like in C++. This can make working with namespaces cumbersome at times.To address this, I decided to implement my own support for it. It mostly works in a similar way to C++ (though function access has some differences). Heres an example to illustrate:void g_func() {}namespace App{ class Class{}; void func

[Library Announcement] Binding Generator Library for AngelScript
I've made a binding generator for AngelScript at https://github.com/HenryAWE/asbind20.The basic feature is almost complete. The library is preparing for its first release. I think it is worth to share this library here, as well as asking for suggestion & feedback.Although the interface of AngelScript is very friendly to C++ comparing to most binding APIs from other script languages, it still needs many additional proxy functions (e.g. when binding a constructor). However, mo

Bent Normals - Verifying correctness of implementation and thought process
Hi all,I am trying to compute bent normals to use for my lighting calculations such as ambient occlusion. The way I understand it is that bent normals point in a direction that represents the "average unoccluded direction" of ambient light around a point on a surface.For this I am ray marching some directions around the current fragment and checking for intersections. For each direction I am checking if there is an intersection seach step, if not, we increment a counter and if t

Outlining A Group Of Layered Sprites
Currently, I've got a GLSL shader which can outline individual sprites by finding the edges of the sprite texture, however I've found this to be insufficient in the case where I have two or more sprites that are layered on top of each other to form a single sprite, because each individual layer is being outlined, while what I want is for the whole thing to be outlined as if it were a single sprite. For example, imagine a character sprite with a separate hat sprite rendered on top, I don't wan

Calculate angles to render 3D actor as an affine-transform sprite
For a bit of background: I'm working on a tech demo for the Gameboy Advance, where I'm using pre-rendered backgrounds - combined with a 3D navmesh, and a camera matrix - to place actors into the scene. Because the GBA doesn't have any 3D hardware, my plan is to pre-render the actors from many different angles (eg. 8 angles around the global up/down axis, and 4 angles around the global left/right axis), and then choosing the correct angles for display. Note that rotation about the camera z axi
