STALCRAFT: X has published a Q&A about the AI behind its non-player entities. The article focuses on how those entities behave and on some of the nuances of their capabilities.

An Oct. 1 Steam announcement links to the Q&A on Reddit. It describes AI behavior as a system that controls non-player entities, with people responsible for configuring that system.

The department had invited players to ask about Mutants and humanoid NPC behavior in August. That earlier call for questions covered how these characters act in combat and move through the world, as well as plans for future NPC behavior.
