My program doesn't have bugs. It just develops random features.

This is the main topic for Monster Support. Monsters are defined as Non-Player Characters whose sole purpose is to hunt down and attack player enemies.

[edit] Overview

In UT, ScriptedPawns handled the AI for NPCs, including Monsters. In UT200x, this scheme was replaced with the coordination of a Pawn class and a Controller (ScriptedController) class. In UT2004, Monsters (available in the Invasion gametype) are implemented with a Monster subclass and a MonsterController.
