    About me:
    I've been learning game development for over a year now, I do have a background in software engineering, but I've always wanted to create my own game.
    I am currently working on this 3rd person action adventure game as a hobby, but I am also trying to build a community, thus I am creating UA-cam tutorials to find others who are interested in game development and design.
    If you are interested in learning more or if you are interested in working together, please let me know in the comments.

    Absolutely fantastic series. Subbed. I previewed the later videos to see what was in store, and the group enemy AI was really impressive. The DetourCrowdAIController was eye opening.

    This is one of the best tutorials I've followed on any subject. Speech and audio are excellent, pacing is great, good standards are encouraged, and plenty of examples along the way of both expected behavior and "pitfalls". You've earned a new sub and patreon! Best of luck building the channel.

    From what I've seen so far on a few of these AI vids, you cover most, if not, all of the points that a lot of people fail to mention. Small things like the rotation setting of the character can be missed out and leave people baffled from other tutorials. Clear, well made and informative. Definitely the go-to series for anyone wanting to sort out AI once and for all. Thanks for the great tutorial, can't wait to learn more from the other parts.

    Very great tutorial and I love how you went over small things outside the AI topic, such as the leg IK issue and camera collision, that normally would have had me stopping the tutorial in the middle and searching for the answer inside another tutorial. The tutorial was very helpful and I'm excited to go over the rest of the tutorials in this AI series(although it seems a bit daunting looking at the total amount of time for all the videos together)

I'll also probably sign up for your higher-tier Patreon sub as I will probably need some general advice later. Recently started my first game dev job in a start up, but there aren't any senior developers yet in the company. There are only a couple of artists with slightly more experience in Unreal. I only learned the basics of Unity at school(comp sci major transferred into game dev).

    Just a heads up for those who are planning on having your enemies be spawned in by a spawner of some kind.
    At 21:20 you can't really see it on the video but there's a setting under "Pawn" called "Auto Possess AI" which is set to "Place in World" by default which means that the Ai Controller will only possess that actor if it's been placed in the world manually by you and won't Possess the actor if it has been spawned in by another actor or the level blueprint.
    To fix this make sure you change the setting to "Spawned" which will only possess the actor upon being spawned, or "Placed in World or Spawned" which possesses the actor regardless if it has been placed in the world or spawned by another actor.
    Aside from that, Ali, your tutorials have helped me loads with a college project I've been working on and this Ai tutorial series is extremely well thought out and has taught me lots of different things. I'll be sure to watch the rest of them for future projects where i'll create more complex enemies.

    • @AliElZoheiry
      @AliElZoheiry  5 місяців тому

      Hey Elemental, thank you for pointing that out. I did indeed get a few people asking me why their AI isn't working when dynamically spawned. Most of them figure it out after a few google searches, so this comment should help as well.
      I'm really happy you're enjoying the content so far. Thank you for watching ;)

  • @Rat_Lord
    @Rat_Lord 2 місяці тому +4

    Damn. This is really great but I paused the video when my enemy was not rotating correctly and spent an hour googling before reading one of your comments about the required character controller settings then proceeding to see you explain it 10 seconds later in the video when I finally resumed. I figured I missed something when it wasn't working after following along exactly. I'm probably not the only one that did this seeing as that section is the most replayed. Hopefully this helps others. Great content though, as others have said, I love the explanations. I probably have more experience than a decent chunk of the audience as I've been working with unreal for a few years but never delved much into AI. So I can sort of recognize quality information at this point from the stuff many tutorials do which is simplest possible and bad practice implementations. Your channel has quality information that I trust, thank you for that.

You might want to create a monthly video with some more advanced techniques. I wouldn't try to give too much away at this level, but it needs to be worth it for people. You can also try $20 and other amounts, but you will need to have something extra special that would be difficult to find somewhere else.

    Nice tutorials! What do you think about State Trees vs Behaviour Trees?

    • @AliElZoheiry
      @AliElZoheiry  8 місяців тому

      State trees are useful for complex systems that include multiple different states that interact with each other, so it's great for things like animation states. But the behaviour tree is more about priority of actions and mimics human behaviour based on probability and best next decision, so it's better for AI behavior

      Yeah you can do everything in the first person template as long as your using the thirdPerson character as the enemy.

    @stabbedbyapanda 4 місяці тому +7

    If you create your own Character BP instead of duping the third person template character, the enemy just slides without animating. This is because of a bunch of settings in the movement component of a character bp. I opened up a separate project to refer to the settings and just typed them manually, but just migrating the character bp over works too. It's specifically because of settings in the Nav Movement section of the component.

    • @AliElZoheiry

Setting orient rotation to movement in the character movement component also forces the character to look in the direction of movement, solving the other issue!

    Question,
    is this set up so that it is casting to the enemy every behaviour tree tick? (event receive execute ai) - (cast to enemy) - (attack). is that ok? is there a better way to do it? like a single cast and store the enemy as a reference?

      @AliElZoheiry  8 місяців тому

      Thanks, happy to hear you're enjoying it 🙏
      Regarding your question; Casting is not a computationally expensive operation at all, so you don't have to worry about doing it every single frame, unless your casting thousands of times per frame, then it makes sense to optimize it of course by storing a reference to the cast class, but since we're only doing it a handful of times, then the performance hit is negligible
