More AI (Blueprint only) tutorials are needed

[motorsep]

Are there any AI tutorials using Blueprints being cooked at Epic for the nearest future release ?

Thanks

What do you want a tutorial on specifically?

I have some UE4 Tutorials, at www.-.com and I’ve been meaning to do more.

I recently took out a lot of Blueprint tasks and replaced them with EQS queries which I found took care of many bugs and inconsistencies I was previously having. But, I found the documentation very straight forward and I’m not sure I’d be adding anything by doing a tutorial on it.

Ah, I’ll check out your blog, thanks.

I am looking for NPCs (pathfinding/navigation; NPCs becoming enemies to player and/or selected group of other NPCs, and vise versa - becoming peaceful NPCs; NPCs infighting; player’s buddy NPCs; AI navigating lifts, platforms, etc.; AI going over obstacles), inventory usage by AI (AI acquiring thing into inventory; using things from inventory) and reacting to player through anims (tracking player with head/body/eyes for example).

Not sure if that’s any different from regular enemy AI in general.

Ideally I’d like some tutorials for AI n00bs :o Like, here is character with certain anims - make it idle; make it follow path (including either stopping on designated path nodes and playing certain anims or simply passing path nodes); make it navigate between locations randomly (while stopping at designated locations and playing some anims); make it track player with head/body/eye when player is around; make it “find” a key, pick it up and use it on a locked door; make it follow player (copying player’s route or by finding way to player’s location).

I’ve seen separate tutorials for most things here. What have you tried so far, and what is your sticking point?

Haven’t gotten to AI yet, just gathering resources for now (and I haven’t done any AI previously; messed a bit with NPCs in Doom 3, but I wouldn’t count it as “working on AI”)

I checked out your blog for AI and it looks like you use a lot of C++ there. I was hoping for pure BP tutorials

Have you tried Peter Newton’s tutorials? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAAHKNoIg0w&list=PLV0qBSMhzPz4-x3bYt2q01c2PjXmUl1eX
