Add Primary target selection logic w/ noise to vanilla AI stack #429

Closed MikeJeffers closed 1 year ago

MikeJeffers commented 2 years ago

Like Turret AI, adding some baseline noise to primary target selection makes NPCs less predictable and keeps players from reliably cornering threat onto a known target - isolating aggro against other squad members.

It need not have as many strategies as: https://github.com/OpenPerpetuum/PerpetuumServer/blob/Development/src/Perpetuum/Zones/NpcSystem/Npc.cs#L163-L178 But at least one random option at a low weight compared to the highest-threat hostile will be sufficient. Parameters up to design/test feedback
