Testing is going well, I've done a bit of testing on Dev and a lot on the main server. There are currently 5 bunny rabbits hopping randomly around the wasteland. Basically testing the random movement AI system stability. At the time of posting they're on tick number 2,117 with no problems yet. The server also handled 100 rabbits with relative ease, using next to no RAM or CPU and processing all the movements in little over 0.2 seconds.

During map 5's "night phase" it will become populated with NPCs just like the bunny rabbits only they will wander around attacking and draining focus from players not in the gang that controls their special objective. The closer you get to the north of the map (where the objective will be) the higher level these NPCs will become.

The night phase will come in to and out of play randomly with a 1 hour warning before transitions. This entire concept is just a way to test wandering / hostile AI ready for a more dynamic guard system in the future.
