Creature AI System Renewal
Vision-based Detection
From range-based detection → Changed to vision-based recognition Creatures react by judging viewing angle, distance, and degree of exposure Brief exposure at the edge of vision leads to 'suspicious state', direct frontal exposure immediately starts pursuit Moving quietly from behind may result in not being detected
Auditory System Improvement
From reacting to all sounds → Changed to focus on repetitive and loud sounds Reduced excessive reactions to footsteps, door opening/closing sounds, etc. More realistic and strategic sound gameplay possible
Pursuit and Search Logic Improvement
Pursuit stops when the player exits the field of vision Returns to initial state if search fails after a certain time Official support for stealth/cover play: pillars, cabinets, behind doors, etc. can be utilized
