A movement controller is an object that controls the movement of a bot.
More specifically, it must sub-class the
MovementController class defined in
bigworld/src/server/tools/bots/movement_controller.,
and therefore implement the virtual method
[ch]ppnextStep(), which supplies position and
orientation updates for that bot.
Additionally, you will need to implement a sub-class of
MovementFactory (defined in the same source files
as MovementController) to supply
MovementController objects to bots, either at bot
instantiation time, or on change of movement controller, via the virtual
method create(). For details, see The create() method.
Note
The Patrol movement controller is recommended as a reference companion to this document.
It can be found in
src/server/tools/bots/patrol_graph..
[ch]pp
This file also contains useful classes other than the movement controller and factory referenced in this document.
