I’ve read I could find, and watched every video I could find and the more I research the more I get really confused on moving AIBots. Alot of it is confusion as to why Trees, blackboards, and things like that are necessary, but I can’t find a simple start from scratch tutorial. They assume you are at a certain level and go from there. For example if you start the “AI Bot: Blueprint Scripting” they do just that. Is anybody else in the same position I am. I understand there is a learning curve , but I just can’t stand not moving at on the curve. Anyone have any advice? I just don’t want to go back to Unity but I feel like this is my only choice… ---

Just call the MoveToLocation function in the AI controller. ---

Hey CreativeOcclusion, that was actually the last set of videos that I watched. The problem with that set of videos is that it still starts in the middle of an already done project, and its still a bit up on the curve for me. ---

What about the blackboard, behavior trees, etc and the other stuff Unreal says you need to use? ---

Hello, 's link works fine for me. Maybe you got an issue when you downloaded it. If you have too much troubles to familiarise with behavior tree / blackboard, here is another ai system by Mhousse1247 : [https://forums.unrealengine.com/showthread.php?25415-Basic-Enemy-AI-(BluePrints-Only)-(Project-Link)&p=108544&viewfull=1#post108544](https://forums.unrealengine.com/showthread.php?25415-Basic-Enemy-AI-%28BluePrints-Only%29-%28Project-Link%29&p=108544&viewfull=1#post108544) ---

I found this, and this does a good job starting with the basics. I wish I had this last week! I think it should be included in the manual: > **[A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/a-new-community-hosted-unreal-engine-wiki/141494)** > > After over a year in maintenance mode, the official Unreal Engine Wiki is now permanently offline. These resources now live on a new community-run Unreal Engine Community Wiki — https://unrealcommunity.wiki/! You will be able to find content from... I don’t understand why something like this isn’t in the manual. ---
