Overview

GingerBreadPigBrain is a behavior tree-based AI component assigned to the Gingerbread Pig entity. It implements a high-priority priority node-based behavior tree (BT) that orchestrates fleeing from threats, following a leash target when present, and orienting the pig toward its target. This brain emphasizes reactive responses over complex decision-making, incorporating standard behavior utilities (RunAway, Leash, FaceEntity) and common triggers from BrainCommon. The brain is initialized in OnStart, which constructs the behavior tree root node but does not execute any logic until activated.

Dependencies & Tags

• Components used: None explicitly accessed via inst.components.X in this file. All external interactions are through behavior modules and functions.
• Tags: None added, removed, or checked directly by this brain. It relies on tag checks performed in helper functions like KeepFaceTargetFn.
• Behavior modules used: behaviours/wander, behaviours/leash, behaviours/standstill, behaviours/runaway, behaviours/doaction, brains/braincommon.

Properties

No properties are defined as public instance variables in the constructor.

Main Functions

No custom methods beyond the overridden OnStart() are defined in this brain. The behavior tree is constructed in OnStart, but no additional public methods exist beyond the base Brain class.

GingerBreadPigBrain:OnStart()

• Description: Initializes the behavior tree root node by constructing a priority node with three major sub-behaviors: panic response (via BrainCommon.PanicTrigger), fleeing via RunAway if chased, leash-following via Leash if a target is assigned and not chased, and orientation via FaceEntity. This method is called once when the brain is attached and activated.
• Parameters: None.
• Returns: nil.

Events & Listeners

No event listeners or event pushes are defined in this file. The brain does not register any inst:ListenForEvent calls or fire inst:PushEvent calls.
