[Tutorial] Building an Attack Slot Manager

Hi everyone!

I've started writing some game AI tutorials for my company recently. The first showed how to implement a Wapoint Path Finding System, and the latest one goes over a simple Attack Slot System.

If you're building a game where multiple NPCs attack the player at once in either a 3D game or top down 2D, an attack slot system can make the AI look a bit smarter by directing them to spread out around their target.

I was actually pretty surprised how little code it took in Unity. The previous times I've built a similar system have been in custom engines in C++. Anyway, you can check out the tutorial at the link below. I'm hoping to continue with other similar tutorials in the near future. Let me know if you find it helpful!
