Just like we learned with decision-making techniques, sometimes it is not flexible enough to just evaluate a waypoints' value, but rather a more complex condition. In this case, the solution is to apply techniques learned previously and couple them into the waypoint for attacking that problem.
The key idea is to add a condition to the node so that it can be evaluated, for example, using a decision tree and developing more complex heuristics for computing a waypoint's value.
It is important to revisit the recipe that handled state machines in the previous chapter before diving into the following recipe.
We will make a little adjustment:
Add
public Conditionto theWaypointclass:public Condition condition;
Now, you'll be able to easily integrate it into decision-making techniques using derived condition classes such as
ConditionFloat.
