Fastän #S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl har bantats avsevärt för att någonsin bli färdigt verkar #GSC Game World fortfarande ha ett par innovativa idéer kvar i koden. Eurogamer intervjuade nyligen Anton Bolshakov och det största samtalsämnet var hur spelet simulerar livet hos alla dess innevånare, monster som människa.
A-Life is a unique feature of our game. This is the AI module which controls all life within the Zone, including individual S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s and all the monster life.
This life simulation takes care of how S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s lead their normal lives, moving around, collecting artefacts, going on missions, communicating with each other, taking food, taking rest, and so on. It also controls the life cycle for monsters. They also take rest, go hunting, eat dead bodies and do whatever else monsters would need to do there in the Zone.
