BehaviorState root.behavior(LuaTable context, Json config, JsonObject parameters)

Loads a behavior and returns the behavior state as userdata.

context is the current lua context called from, in almost all cases _ENV.

config can be either the String name of a behavior tree, or an entire behavior tree configuration to be built.

parameters is overrides for parameters for the behavior tree.

BehaviorState contains 2 methods:

behavior:init(_ENV) -- initializes the behavior, loads required scripts, and returns a new behavior state behavior:run(state, dt) -- runs the behavior, takes a behavior state for the first argument behavior:clear(state) -- resets the internal state of the behavior

Example:

function init()
  self.behavior = root.behavior("monster", {})
  self.behaviorState = self.behavior:init(_ENV)
end

function update(dt)
  self.behavior:run(self.behaviorState, dt)
end
