MANAGING MEMBERS AGAINST OPPONENTS IN AN ENCOUNTER SET IN A COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT

Abstract:

In one example aspect, a computer-implemented method or managing one or more members during an encounter in a competitive environment in a "prudent yet aggressive" fashion includes: receiving input data relating to the encounter within the competitive environment; at incrementing timesteps, executing a simulation to select different move sets during progression of the encounter, each move set defining movements or assignments of each of the one or more members as part of developing a strategy. Selecting different move sets includes: generating first move set options for containing one or more opponents by members based on the input data; selecting a first move set; generating a node identifying the selected first move set option; generating second move set options based on the node as input; selecting a second move set; determining that objectives have been met; and generating and outputting instructions associated with the first and second move sets.
