ai_behavior

Abstract class for an action an AI can take, can range from movement to grabbing a nearby weapon.

Vars
action_cooldown	Cooldown between actions performances, defaults to the value of CLICK_CD_MELEE because that seemed like a nice standard for the speed of AI behavior
behavior_flags	Flags for extra behavior
required_distance	What distance you need to be from the target to perform the action
sub_behaviors	Behaviors to add upon a successful setup
Procs
finish_action	Called when the action is finished. This needs the same args as perform besides the default ones
get_cooldown	Returns the delay to use for this behavior in the moment Override to return a conditional delay
next_behavior	Returns a behavior to perform after this one, or null if continuing this one
perform	Called by the AI controller when this action is performed
score	Returns a numerical value that is essentially a priority for planner behaviors.
score_distance	Helper for scoring something based on the distance between it and the pawn.
setup	Called by the ai controller when first being added. Additional arguments depend on the behavior type. Return FALSE to cancel

(/datum/ai_controller/controller, succeeded, ...)

Called when the action is finished. This needs the same args as perform besides the default ones

proc
get_cooldown
(/datum/ai_controller/cooldown_for)

Returns the delay to use for this behavior in the moment Override to return a conditional delay

proc
next_behavior
(/datum/ai_controller/controller, success)

Returns a behavior to perform after this one, or null if continuing this one

proc
perform
(delta_time, /datum/ai_controller/controller, ...)

Called by the AI controller when this action is performed

proc
score
(/datum/ai_controller/controller)

Returns a numerical value that is essentially a priority for planner behaviors.

proc
score_distance
(/datum/ai_controller/controller, /atom/target)

Helper for scoring something based on the distance between it and the pawn.

proc
setup
(/datum/ai_controller/controller, ...)
