Do I need an AI to handle multiple movements in a video sequence?

Hi,

I have just started working with Unreal Engine and am looking to record a video sequence of flying drones/UAVs (3 to 10) moving in a visually realistic environment.

Do you think I should develop an AI to handle drone movements or using timeline and setActorLocation will suffice?

Some precisions :

  • No interaction is required. Drones just move.
  • It would be desirable for the drones to adopt a formation.
  • The trajectory of a drone (quadcopter) must be realistic and determine, in conjunction with the speed, the inclination of the drone.

Thank you,
