Athena AI is an easy to use framework that enhances AI behavior design by giving you the tools to create your own dynamic NPCs, capable of emergent behavior and smart decision making. With Athena AI you will:

• Integrate Athena AI into your project seamlessly.

• Compatible with other plugins and systems, including GAS.

• Make your enemies and allies feel alive by giving them the power to make decisions on their own.

• Create real emergent behavior by using curves and non-linear data instead of yes/no conditions.

• Create advanced NPC AI without the chaotic mess that a Behavior Tree would become.

• Debug everything by leveraging the multitude of debug tools included with Athena (VisualLogger, GameplayDebugger, Unreal Insights and custom solutions).

With Athena, the system takes care of the intricacies under the hood, you just take care of designing amazing AI!To do that, you create tasks for your NPCs in Blueprint (or C++), design their behavior based on considerations (data from them) and curves, all under presets that greatly enhance flexibility when working with multiple NPCs or various behavior types.

After your preset is done, the system will take care of everything so you will only have to worry about feeding it data for your considerations and adjusting your NPCs behavior by modifying their curves, all stored in a Curve Table for easy access and comparison between them.

Check the documentation and videos for info on all the features Athena AI has in store!

Additional Notes:

- Even though the system is easy to use and integrate into your project, some basic knowledge of Unreal Engine AI development is needed such as working with AI Controllers.
