I want to create a comprehensive performance benchmark for #beehave but I am wondering how to emulate older hardware, given I just have a massive gamer PC. Is the best practice here to use VMs?

There have been concerns about performance in #beehave because it is written in GDScript and not C++. I am working on releasing a detailed benchmark that shows how performant it actually is. Stay tuned for more!

It took me quite a bit to figure out some AI issues but it was down to a misunderstanding about how #beehave worked. Now I use two decorators to do an infinite loop after the player has been detected.

Enemy object has just been growing more and more which I find fun to look in on, when it eventually gets some proper geometry and animations I can only imagine how large it will get. I am using #Beehave for the AI which is a great free addon for #godot .

Enemy AI is still my #gamedev nemesis😅 Faced reusability issues with my last approach, so gave Behavior Trees another shot. Thanks to #BeeHave Godot Plugin, BTs finally clicked! So I built my own BT library for my #customengine, featuring a type-safe blackboard & basic debug view.

@SonnyBonds with #beehave you can mutate the 'branches' of the tree at runtime though, basically have generative AI. Code is static

#Beehave 2.7.10 is out. Most notably, it fixes some issues around #Godot addon errors on first startup, as well as a new Delayer and Cooldown decorator nodes.

The number of complaints about a lack of beginner tutorials on #Beehave seem to mount up a lot recently.

I will prioritise a proper #Godot 4.x video tutorial on it. The goal for that tutorial is to be longer (and slower) and I'll go into behaviour tree basics, too. :godot:

#GodotEngine 4 NavAgents + #Beehave = Ace! 140 agents ducking for cover with minimal optimisation.

This now only queries hiding places when 'spotted' and includes path sampling to identify the 'least visible' path, not just the closest hiding solution. This results in it largely avoiding running in front of the player like it was before :D

~140 agents is roughly where I saw occasional dips to 60fps, but largely it stayed considerably above that.

#Beehave has now a full suite of unit tests. Once some of the import issues in the latest Godot Beta are resolved I can start enabling the CI integration for this.

Every single pull request will be tested before merging!

Good morning! ☕

I spent last night setting up a build pipeline on Github to automatically run unit tests with #GodotEngine #Beehave

It still does not quite work, though. *stretches fingers*
