Final 500 words Text - Research Asignment

Sandbox 2 Editor is the program that allow user to edit their environment in the Crysis War Environment. The course BENV2423 requites student to be able to create, modify and give command to the character in the environment, to represent the interaction between people and environment. Throughout the whole course the two experiments allow students to explore and gain skill knowledge in using Sandbox 2 Editor program. In this final research assignment I will conduct a video tutorial that implement the skill that is most likely to be used in order to show the interaction between people and environment.


For the past few months that I have been researching on a number of tutorial on the public source and gathering some skill knowledge on this program I then decide to choose the most effective way of giving command to the environment which is AI flowgraph nodes as the main focus in this tutorial research assignment.

The video tutorial will be presented in written statement along will the video. As I have been following lots of tutorial I found that written one maybe more effecting as it is more accurate when indicating the different tools and flowgraph nodes in the tutorial.

For the video tutorial, it will contains three main subjects which are tutorial shows how to command character in environment to get on or out of the vehicle by Vehicle:Entre and Vehicle:Exite nodes and drive it around in the given direction by using AI:FollowPathSpeedStance node and AIPath, the tutorial shows the movement of characters in the given spot direction by using AI:GoToSpeedStance node and TagPoint and the last subject is tutorial shows how to command characters to follow the user(player) by using Enity: EnityPos and Game:LocalPlayer as the key important nodes. Tutorial on people behaviour will also included by using AI:Execute, to show some action of people when they are in environment over a period of time. Some basic skill tricks will be also demonstrated though out the tutorial.

The action and movement as I stated on the above paragraph are those that show the significant relationship of people and environment. As we, students, used the train structure to involve in our understanding of the Pority therefore I the actions that involve in the train station would be the important part for user to navigate the interaction between people and environment. As people walk through space we can then identity the time and the area they are more likely to be in. Vehicle is another object that most involved in the interaction of people and environment. Therefore by combining the skill of knowledge focusing on that idea and demonstrating them into the easy step-by-step tutorial, the great understanding of Porosity the can be arrived.

By doing a lot of researches on the Sandbox 2 tutorial for the past few months I gain lots of skill and technique to command people to move through space at the right area and direction hence the understanding of people in the environment is created.
