A real shame this project got abandoned. Gonna see if I can try to breathe life back into this thing. There's not enough tools out there for utility AI.

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, Kevin. The detailed explanation on your custom editor is very important.

Really cool talk! I gotta check this open source project out!

Out of curiosity, why the two-to-three year delay between the time this occurred and the upload date?

Fascinating stuff, always fun to see more open source tools being created.

Saw the Thumbnail, recognized the skin, instantly knew it was gonna be an ArenaNet dev. Hope this tech found its way into End of Dragons.

Neat project, but I think I'd rather explore my own idea by creating my own system.
