# 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.
