Unity 2018 Artificial Intelligence Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

Thanks to our previous hard work, this recipe is a short one:

1. Create the AvoidWall behavior derived from Seek:

using UnityEngine; 
using System.Collections; 
 
public class AvoidWall : Seek 
{ 
    // body 
} 

2. Include the member variables for defining the safety margin and the length of the ray to cast:

public float avoidDistance; 
public float lookAhead; 

3. Define the Awake function to set up the target:

public override void Awake() 
{ 
    base.Awake(); 
    target = new GameObject(); 
} 

4. Define the GetSteering function required for future steps:

public override Steering GetSteering() 
{ 
    // body 
}

5. Declare and set the variable needed for ray casting:

Steering steering = new Steering(); Vector3 position = transform.position; Vector3 rayVector ...
