A plugin-based, reusable implementation of steering behaviours for autonomous characters for the game engine Panda3D. Also includes some simple terrain generation code based on the diamond-square algorithm and Perlin noise. This code requires Panda3D to be installed on your system. The 3D models included with the download are from the free set that you can download from panda3d.org.

Run pandaSteer.py for a plugin-based steering behaviours demo.
Run terrain.py for a demo of the terrain generator.
Run scene.py for a demo 'game' scene combining the terrain generator
and steering behaviours.
The code was originally posted to a thread on the Panda3D forums. Thanks to Panda3D forum members ynjh_jo, Thomas_egi, pro-rsoft, drwr, cyan, mavasher, Ffeuuell, zuck and astelix for contributions.
