Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Every gamer knows the feeling of dread: the mission objective shifts, and suddenly you are forced to protect a fragile, excruciatingly slow non-player character (NPC) as they wander blindly through a warzone. The 'escort mission' is universally despised, yet developers have continued to force them into blockbuster games for decades.The Burden of the NPC explores the profound disconnect between ambitious game design and the stark limitations of artificial intelligence. Creating a companion that acts autonomously without ruining the player's agency is a programming nightmare. To prevent the NPC from solving the puzzle for the player, designers must artificially lobotomize them, reducing their walking speed and eliminating their survival instincts, which turns an engaging adventure into a tedious babysitting job.This book dives into the complex math of pathfinding algorithms and navmeshes. It charts the evolution of the escort mission from infuriating retro cliches to modern triumphs like The Last of Us, explaining how developers finally learned to hide the invisible strings.Peer into the code of gaming's greatest annoyance. Understand why teaching a computer to walk beside a human is the hardest problem in game development, and how bad AI completely shatters virtual immersion.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Hayes, Scott (illustratore). Paperback. A cookbook for the house or the firehouse, comprised of recipes developed over a 25+ year career as a Firefighter. My first several years I was on the department I had the good fortune to work with some of the best cooks our department has seen. I was able to learn from them a style of cooking I was not familiar with, cooking from scratch with some short cuts along the way. For a number of years, I was the designated cook for the various stations I was assigned to. Once I became the designated cook, I developed themes for each day for one of the meals. I then left the other meal open for whatever was on sale, or whatever I felt like cooking that day. Sunday became Sugo Sunday (Sugo being the Italian for gravy, American Italian for tomato sauce), followed by Meatloaf Monday, Taco Tuesday, Wing Wednesday, Tot Waffle Thursday, Fish Friday (or Fajita Friday when I worked with someone that didn't like seafood), and Pizza Saturday. I have multiple recipes for each day's theme, making the decisions at the store easier first thing in the morning while keeping a variety for the guys (and gals) that I was feeding. Although I greatly enjoy cooking, I don't like to do recipes that are too complicated, so my recipes are very simple to make. This item is printed on demand.
