=head1 NAME

TAEB::AI::Demo - a demonstration autonomous AI

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This exists so we include have something that *plays* NetHack in the core TAEB
distro: a default AI. We could use L<TAEB::AI::Behavioral> but that is a
separate distribution, one that depends on L<TAEB> at that.

This is also an example AI for people interested in writing one.

=head1 EXERCISES

If you're interested in bot development, here are some recommended enhancements
to make to this demonstration AI. You can use these exercises to get accustomed
to the TAEB codebase.

If you get stuck, one place to look is L<TAEB::AI::Behavioral>, where we've
implemented all of these behaviors.

=over 4

=item

Have the bot write Elbereth if its HP is less than 50%.

=item

When there's an adjacent Elbereth-ignoring monster, don't write Elbereth (so
that you fall through to melee).

=item

Design a sane policy for writing Elbereth and meleeing monsters when there are
both Elbereth-respecters and Elbereth-ignorers.

Implement this policy.

=item

Pick up food (but not corpses). Is
L<TAEB::Role::Item::Food::Corpse/is_safely_edible> sufficient to
determine which food to pick up?

=item

Eat food from inventory before resorting to prayer.

Be sure to support eating inventory food while standing on a tile with food
(recall that NetHack asks you if you want to eat that floor food).

=item

Dip for Excalibur when appropriate.

=item

If you have projectiles, throw them at enemies.

=item

Retrieve projectiles you've thrown.

=item

Pick up and wear armor.
