After we have covered this, will be able to set up AI controllers that use Behavior Trees, which is key in implementing the rest of the techniques in this book.
As you may notice, there is a pattern in which we first learn a little bit about the theory, and then we jump straight into practice to understand how it all works. This is a pattern that we will follow in each chapter. So, let...
