Well, we scaled back IOL a lot. It didn''t die because we didn''t have the skills, but because we didn''t have the time... Anyway, I am interested in seeing how you go with this... I am not into really developing AI in my game atm, but I am definitely thinking about it![]()

sorry I don''t think I explained it well...My point was there would be many abstract desires to fill (power, respect, etc) but the desires would be general rather than specific. For instance, if an NPC wanted power there would be more than one way to attain it. The way the NPC chose to attain it would be dependant upon many factors of the NPC''s personality.
