Acknowledgments

Game AI Pro2 required a huge team effort to come together. First, I thank the five section editors for the excellent job they did in selecting, guiding, and editing the contributions in this book. The section editors were

  • Neil Kirby—General Wisdom
  • Alex Champandard—Architecture
  • Nathan R. Sturtevant—Movement and Pathfinding; Applied Search Techniques
  • Damián Isla—Tactics, Strategy, and Spatial Awareness
  • Kevin Dill—Character Behavior; Analytics, Content Generation, and Experience Management
