Align Class Reference

Description

Align fits an agent's orientation to the orientation of one target percept (back-end class).

It functions analogously to the usual steering behaviour 'Alignment'. Therefore, AIMAlign.Target is used. The orientation of the target percept is obtained using the Transform.rotation and the forward vector of the agent. The SteeringBehaviour.ResultMagnitude is always one. In order to weight the objective values with other steering behaviours, you might use SteeringBehaviour.MagnitudeMultiplier. Note, the behaviour concentrates only on one target at a time.

Back-end class of AIMAlign. This behaviour is thread-safe.
