In previous videos, we have discussed the Goal Oriented Action Planning (GOAP) framework: a game AI method adopting classical STRIPS-based planning for the F.E.A.R. trilogy. In this video, we look at the evolution of planning in games, focussing on the Transformers: Cybertron series by High Moon Studios. We not only discuss how GOAP was adopted in the series, but also introduce an alternate method, known as Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning.
