Your AI sets goals and the underlying "make this goal work" code sequences out the states to get stuff done. Decisions like "am I winning right now" have nothing to do with states themselves. In this case the AI says "Oh, I'm now winning" and sets the goal of "defend" which then triggers states like "find cover" -> "acquire target" -> "fire" in sequence.

So I need some centralized object that controls both motion and attack. Urgh.. my head hurts. | |
