Feathered Edges: Welcome

Player Controls

I was tasked with creating all of the players behavior ranging from movement to combat. This was an opportunity to become familiar with Unity 3D animation states while tackling the challenges of managing combat data and information.

Combat Variables and Classes

While making this combat system variable management became important to maintain for designers. Working on a deeper system such as this helped develop my skills in designing designer friendly code and helped balance values faster in editor.

Combat and Animation States

To ensure hit detection matched with animatons, animation states and their various functions were used to turn on and off hit collisions. I learned important animation functions like GetCurrentAnimatorStateInfo to make animation and hit detection responsive.

Enemy AI

Enemy AI needed to have patrolling behavior and aggro behavior when spotting the player. The former proved to be more challenging due issue with the cone-shaped player detection. Enemies also needed to be called in groups when one enemy detects the player.

AI Wandering State Snippet

This snippet shows how the AI wanders randomly and how they change into their aggro state. Though I grew an understanding of how Unity animatior state machines worked, we couldn't get the player detection to work consistantly.

Attack Animation Behavior

Randomly call an attack animation during aggro state. Helped continue my understand of Unitys animation system.
