Good 2d AI tutorial

[Cronnoc]

I'm using sfml 2.0 and i want to know if anyone has a good ai tutorial for 2d game programming

I don't have a good tutorial, but I can point you towards a good book.

Programming Game AI by Example

Make sure you have some mediocre math skills before hand though. Solid Algebra and trig is preferable.

thanks this book looks like it will be helpful

I want to mention another book, called Core Techniques and Algorithms in Game Programming. It has a very high level explanation of various AI techniques(and scripting, path finding, and other related things) along with pseudo-code. The way he explains it in this book makes it seem very easy to understand.

+1 For Mat Buckland's book that Austin J suggested.

Really excellent book. Was able to make a reasonably sensible set of bots for a top-down 2D game using Reynold's Behaviours, A* pathfinding and finite state machines.
