Alterguardian Phase1Brain

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-03

Overview​

Alterguardian_Phase1Brain defines the behavior tree logic for the Alterguardian boss during its initial phase. It manages combat decision-making—including shield deployment, attack readiness, and movement—by prioritizing behavior nodes. It relies on the combat component for target validity and cooldown checks, and the knownlocations component to remember its spawn point as a wander home.

Usage example​

This brain is typically assigned internally by the Alterguardian prefab and does not require direct instantiation. However, a minimal usage example for reference would be:

local inst = CreateEntity()
inst:AddComponent("brain")
inst:AddComponent("combat")
inst:AddComponent("knownlocations")
inst.brain = Alterguardian_Phase1Brain(inst)
inst.brain:OnStart()

Dependencies & tags​
