Never a Dull Moment: Believable Dynamic Character Beat Generation between Game World Events

Abstract

This work presents a heterogeneous system using ABL, CiF, and a virtual game world to demonstrate how dynamic character beats can be used to preserve believability across game world events. We describe the individual components used in our system and detail how each component contributes to the alignment of physical and mental contexts of NPC agents. Finally, we provide a brief account of the demo experience showcasing our system’s capabilities.
