AI Agents - Minions

In Season 3, StarHeroes introduces a new gameplay feature: AI-controlled Minions.

Each player now commands their own Minion, resulting in multiple Minions actively participating in every match (for example, a 3v3 match includes 6 Minions in total). These Minions are automated agents guided by artificial intelligence, programmed to execute specific orders from their player's ship.

Minion Actions:

Minions autonomously perform one of three key actions:

  1. Healing – Minions can actively restore health to their team's ships, enhancing sustainability during combat.

  2. Pushing Anomalies – Minions can help strategically push anomalies and contribute to capturing objectives.

  3. Collecting Stardust Containers – Minions can gather valuable Stardust resources, crucial for team upgrades and advantages.

Minion Characteristics:

  • Minions never attack players directly.

  • They are slow-moving, yet possess significant durability and resilience

  • Minions can be destroyed, upon which their Stardust resources are distributed among opposing team members. After destruction, Minions respawn following a set death timer.

  • Laser weapon have increased effectiveness against Minions, just like against anomalies.

Minions add a layer of strategic depth to gameplay, enabling players to make tactical choices based on Minion positioning, resource control, and battlefield objectives.
