Players often attribute more intelligence to non-player characters than is actually warranted. Therefore, rather than investing more AI complexity in the system, we propose an approach which refines the finite-state machine techniques already prevalent in commercially available games. Taking advantage of the similarities between robots and NPCs in dynamic environments, we describe an NPC control system called Ledgewalker that uses behavior-based techniques.
