Interface AiModule

All Known Implementing Classes:

CreeperAiModule

public interface AiModule

Interface for creating AI and pathfinding algorithms

Each time an entity attempts to think, it will call think(net.tridentsdk.entity.LivingEntity) and give the ai a chance to decide behavior.

The module may also provide a path and return a number other than 0 to indicate how many ticks the AI can rest and the path will be followed by the entity. By not setting a path and returning a value other than 0, the entity can effectively be made to "sleep," where it will not move at all.
