🧠 Key Features

▶️ Core AI System

• Smart State Machine – Switches between Idle, Patrol, Alerted, Investigating, and Combat states.
• Can be used on non-humanoids like security cameras, turrets, etc.Field of View (FOV) – Detects targets in a cone or radius (supports 360°).
• Chase & Distance Control – Use for melee AI (e.g., zombies) or ranged enemies that keep a safe gap.
• Group-Based Communication – AI can alert others in a shared group. If both agents belong to the same alarm group, they’ll rush to the noise position.
• Investigation Behavior – Agents investigate intelligently when losing sight of the target.
• Affects all groups included in the call.Fake Noise Support – Trigger decoy sounds (like explosions or distractions) to lure agents.

Includes all core features, plus:

• Cover System – Finds safe zones behind obstacles based on the target’s direction.
