BehaviorSet::BehaviorSet ( )

Constructor.

Member Function Documentation

bool BehaviorSet::Add ( Behavior * behavior )

Add a behavior to the brain.

Add a new behavior to the set. If a behavior with the same name exists, than the new behavior will substitude the existing behavior. This to support the nested structure of the behavoir scripts.

Parameters

behavior The new behavior to be added to this BehaviorSet.

Returns: Returns true if the behavior didn't already exist. Otherwise returns false and substitude the existing duplicate behavior.

void BehaviorSet::Advance	(	csTicks	delta,
		NPC *	npc
	)

Advances the behaviors.

Will calculate the need and select the active behavior.

Parameters

delta	The numbers of ticks to advance this set.
npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

void BehaviorSet::ClearState ( NPC * npc )

Prepare the set after use.

Called when the npc actor is deleted. Should reset all session depended stats. So that a new instance of the actor for the npc can start with a fresh brain.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

void BehaviorSet::DeepCopy ( BehaviorSet & other )

Do a deap copy.

Will do a deap copy of the BehaviorSet. The NPCType will contain a complete BehaviorSet for each type. When a new NPC is instantiated a deap copy of the set will be done before assigning it to the new NPC.

Parameters

other The source to be copied into this set.

void BehaviorSet::DumpBehaviorList	(	csString &	output,
		NPC *	npc
	)

Dump the behavior list for debug.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

void BehaviorSet::Execute	(	NPC *	npc,
		bool	forceRunScript
	)

Execute script operations.

Will run script operations until they loop, fail, or need more time.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.
forceRunScript	Force running the script.

Behavior* BehaviorSet::Find ( const char * name )

Find a behavior in the set.

Search the set for a behavior maching the given name.

Parameters

name	The name of the behavior to find.

Returns: The found behavior or NULL if no behavior is found.

Behavior* BehaviorSet::GetCurrentBehavior ( )

inline

Return current active behavior.

Definition at line 167 of file npcbehave.h.

float BehaviorSet::GetHighestNeed ( NPC * npc )

Return hight current or new need.

csString BehaviorSet::InfoBehaviors ( NPC * npc )

Info about the behavior list for debug.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

void BehaviorSet::Interrupt ( NPC * npc )

Interrupt the current active behavior.

If there is an active behavior in this set that behavior will be interrupted by calling this function.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

Behavior* BehaviorSet::Schedule ( NPC * npc )

Rearrange the behavior set based on need.

Parameters

npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.

void BehaviorSet::UpdateNeeds	(	float	delta,
		NPC *	npc
	)

Update needs for all behaviors.

Increase or decrease needs depended on the behaviors active state.

Parameters

delta	The delta to add to the need for this behavior.
npc	The NPC that own this BehaviorSet.
