What other types of AI can people expect from our game [besides ship flight AI]?
In the future, they'll see the character-based AI with characters on planetside and such moving around. But then they'll also get to see it in the first-person shooter aspects, like with boarding actions and such, where you have squad-based AI and multiple characters in combat and reacting in a realistic manner during the shipboarding.
Will there be crowd AI or AI planetside and stuff? They'll be handling that kind of stuff too?
Yeah.
We even have it where as the economy of a planet changes, the characters you might see on the planet and the different jobs they're doing will change based on the changes to that economy. So then you'll see you might have a different AI controlling that character because they have a completely different profession or the economy of the planet is going up or down.
