Polarith AI
1.8
Implements IPercept<T> and serves as container for perceived steering data used by all derived SteeringBehaviour instances.
Instances of this class gets a SetGameObject as input and extracts all available data with the help of the Receive(GameObject) method. This is necessary for the main movement AI method Context.Evaluate to support Unity's serialization mechanism, because in sub-threads it is not possible to access class references of the Unity scripting API.
The data extraction needs to be done before the parallel execution of multiple threads, so an ideal place for this would be within an IEvaluationPreparer.PrepareEvaluation implementation respectively within AIMContext.PrepareEvaluation.
