Legacy:Monster Support
From Unreal Wiki, The Unreal Engine Documentation Site
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.
Overview[edit]
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.
