Automating Choreography for in-Game Animation

Enquadramento
Coordinating animations and
other
procedural representations in games is a tedious task currently done
mostly via
explicit programmed cycles of updating and rending. This is further
complicated
when we have hundreds or even thousands or individual representations
being
updated synchronously.
Objetivo
With this proposal we aim to enable a
declarative
approach to game choreography that takes Petri Nets as a basis for
specifying and
processing the coordination between many concurrent animations and
their
dependence on game events modeled as tokens. To achieve this we will
adapt an
existing open source Petri Net simulator and focus on designing a visual tool
to
enable drawing of diagrams and experimentation with an existing game
engine.
