Universal Monster (UM) is an easy to use NPC AI Combat Framework, which is meant to expedite your process of turning your character models and animations into fully functioning AI ready to populate your game world. From humanoids to magical fantasy beasts, UM has the ability to work with any skeleton as long as they have similar animations: idle, walk, attack, hit, etc. Universal Monster comes with a few default AI behaviors to help get you started, but is also capable of any behavior you can think of. UM has basic tasks that you decide when they are executed by giving them specific conditions, very similar to how an animation blueprint state machine works.
