There are a lot more steering behaviors that can make the games very interesting. There are
various group behaviors as well, which can be explored after having a hands-on these beha-
viors. Few of the behaviors are as follows:
•
Flocking
: When the objects exhibit certain common behavior in groups, then that
behavior is called flocking
•
Alignment
: When the objects exhibit some behavior that causes a particular char-
acter to line up with agents close by, then it's called alignment
•
Cohesion
: In this behavior, the objects are steered toward the center of the mass of
all the objects—that is, the average position of the agents within a certain radius
•
Separation
: In this behavior, the objects are steered away from all of their neigh-
bors
