Utility Intelligence is a robust and powerful Utility AI Framework. Unlike traditional AI techniques such as BTs, FSMs, and GOAP, which rely on conditions for decision-making, our agents evaluate all possible decisions and select the one with the highest score. Besides that, each decision is scored per target, ensuring that the best target is chosen for the selected decision. This approach makes our agents behave more naturally compared to other AI techniques.

Moreover, Utility Intelligence offers an intuitive and powerful Editor with many robust features that allow you to create complex AI Behaviours and Logic with ease.

💎HIGHLIGHT FEATURES

🛠️An intuitive and powerful Editor

We offer an intuitive and powerful Editor with many robust features that allow you to create complex AI Behaviors and Logic with ease:

• Status Preview: Preview the score of each decision and which decision is chosen based on the input values and response curves directly in the Editor, without having to play the game.
• Consideration Editor: See how the input and the response curve will affect the consideration score without having to visualize it in your head.
• JSON Editing: Manually edit the Intelligence Data in JSON format using your Text Editor then import it to the Intelligence Asset
• Runtime Status: View the current status of multiple components during runtime. It is similar to Status Preview but includes additional runtime information, such as the best target for each decision, and the current status of considerations and action tasks.
• Runtime Editing: Tweak your AI Behaviors during runtime for testing purposes without having to replay the game.
• Runtime Editor: The Utility Intelligence Editor can function both at editor time and at runtime in builds. This feature enables users to adjust variables in the Utility Intelligence Editor to observe how they affect the agent’s decisions for testing purposes in builds.
• Lockable Editor: Lock the Intelligence Editor on a specific Utility Agent, allowing users to modify variables from other Game Objects through the Inspector Window and see how they affect the decision scores in the Intelligence Editor.
• Field Attributes: Show/hide and group your fields in the Intelligence Editor.
• Dark & Light themes: The Utility Intelligence Editor supports both Dark and Light themes and will automatically match the theme of the Unity Editor.

🧩Modular System Design

• Considerations: Our modular consideration system allows you to adjust the score of each decision by adding, removing, or changing considerations, ensuring that the best decision is chosen in any situation.
• Target Filters: Our modular target filter system allows you to filter the targets for each decision by adding, removing, or changing target filters, ensuring that the decision is scored and executed with the appropriate targets.
• Action Tasks: Our modular task system, created using Behavior Tree, allows you to easily customize and adjust each decision's behavior by adding, removing, or changing action tasks, making it easy to adapt to constant changes from game design.
• Blackboard Variables: Share information between multiple components such as inputs, input normalization, and action tasks using Blackboard Variables.
