Hello, I’m a university student current on their summer break.
I just got back from holiday and noticed that the people in the East were rather interested in Ghost stories and horror etc. Which got me thinking about what to make during the summer break once I got back to the UK.
So what I’ve got in mind is creating a small app/minigame using something like a Ouiji board that people use to summon ghost.
Creating the board and making it interactive should be within my current level of skill but after a dicussion with a classmate. I was beginning to wonder if it possible to use unity to create an AI on the level of Siri or Samsung voice, which can select and play a range pre-recorded answers giving off the illusion that a ghost is speaking?
Would like some ideas and feedback though I believe creating an advanced AI is aquite out of my league.
no reason u cant pull off anything in unity that u can do in other engines.
the question is if there is something already laid out like assets in the store, and i dont think there is. its no small task and would be a project all on its own. ( to get it to anything remotely close to Siri)
Sounds like it should be fairly simple you just need a workflow to determine the results. Quick example:
int playerActionInt;
int enemyResponseInt;
int randomNumberInt;
bool conditionForGhostResponse;
void Update()
{
//trigger ghostResponseFunction
if (conditionForGhostReponse == true)
{
ghostResponseFunction();
conditionForGhostResponse = false;
}
}
void ghostResponseFunction()
{
if (playerActionInt ==1)
{
randomNumberInt = Random.Range (1,4);
if (randomNumberInt == 1)
{
//ghost action 1
}
else if (randomNumberInt == 2)
{
//ghost action 2
}
//etc.
}
else if (playerActionInt == 2)
{
if (randomNumberInt ==1)
{
//ghost action 3
}
else if (randomNumberInt == 2)
{
//ghost action 4
}
//etc.
}
}
That is a basic logic outline how you could do something like this. I’m not sure if the ghost or all the details are anything like your project just rushed for basic answer. I hope that helps.
