Forest Island
Arctic Islands
Badland Island
Each has its own Vegetation, Look and Feel!
This is the preliminary update and framework to allowing more robust and Randomized worlds for the future.

----OLD VERSION ----
----NEW VERSION ----
May 1, 2020 - v0.126 - Major AI Update! In-City Zombies, Wild Life
This is a very long awaited Update to W.A.R Let us explain why...
Because W.A.R Generates a City on the fly for new servers. When dealing with AI or Moving NPC Characters, there must be some sort of PathFinding or Navigation for a AI/NPC. Therefore because the environment is always different from server to server, The AI/NPC Navigation Generation Must be done after the Environment is Generated.
In Otherwords, We cannot Pre-Bake, Or Pre-Make this type of navigation. This results in a lengthy process when hosting Servers that utilize AI. It also required a Large Amount of RAM 8-12GB
That is the prime reason why In-City AI/NPC Navigation was not incorporated until Now!.
We have included some images of Generated Navigation in this update. In the Screenshots the Light Blue area is the "Walkable" area for an AI.
Developer AI Generation Images :
Since W.A.R Also has 30 Story Enter-able SkySrapers... We did not want to limit the ability for AI or enter or get to the 30th floor of a sky scraper...
So you can see from some of the Navigation Images the Multi-Floor Generation and Stairs Connecting them, to allow AI/NPC to walk around and enter buildings properly.
- ADDED - IN-CITY Zombie/Wild-Life Spawning Pathfinding and AI
- ADDED - 'maxzombies' Console Command ADDED
- ADDED - 'maxzombiesperplayer' Console Command ADDED
- ADDED - Warning Menu Popup when hosting a game.
- ADDED - Enable/Disable Wildlife Options
- ADDED - Over 200 Additional Lines of Debug Output for Call Stacks, so we can trace errors better
- ADDED - Settings and Exit buttons Added to Main Menu
*** FUTURE *** We Plan on taking some time to replace old networking code and update the networking framework for WAR with the next coming update.
*** FUTURE *** We Plan on working out some of the ongoing bugs with AI and networking and adding a couple more different types of wildlife, I.E Bears, Rabbit
*** INFO *** 70+ Standalone Builds were Built and Tested in production of this update.
*** INFO *** Approx Update Size 980.9 MB
- MAJOR - AI Pathfinding and In-City Spawning Completed. ** Please Read NOTES above **
Fix- AI NavMesh Generating not Generating all parts and pieces, Improper Angles and Improper Obstacle Avoidance.
Fix- NavArea Object Tracking System has been Completely Rebuilt
Fix- NavigationBuilding Hidden Static Singleton Errors Fixed (This would result in Duplicated and different NavMesh Generation Processes occurring)
Fix- Improper Terrain Spawn Timing for Dedicated Server, Resulting in Improper Navmesh Generation and weaving of City Objects
Fix- City Objects Not Weaving with Main NavMesh for AI Pathfinding.
** NOTE ** Benchmarks suggest at least 18GB of Usable Memory (24 Total System Memory) when Hosting a Server with AI and Generating City.
** NOTE ** When only spawning the City and AI/Zombies/Wildlife is Disabled 8GB Memory is Sufficient.
** NOTE ** Disabling AI and City Generation results in Required memory of only 4GB. (Textures and Programming)
