This time we focused on the code cleanup and refactoring, making sure that the new AoE shape system is properly used not only by the AI checks, but also by the AoE skills themselves. We also made sure that the new AoE avoidance AI is also available to some of the monsters, and not just the simulated characters, with an option to dial down the chance of triggering it.
And as a bonus, we implemented a new offensive AoE skill for the Boss Pukui, that damages and blinds the targets in front of the monster. And yes, looks like the AoE avoidance system is working very nicely with it (or rather against it). But we definitely need more skills for the boss, which is probably going to be the main focus of the next Ymirheim Development stream.
