Dear Firelord,

welcome to the Ca3DE forums!

The DeathMatch MOD is indeed a first person shooter, and although there is a great framework (C++ interfaces to the engine, the world etc., the type system, scripting support, etc.) that encourages the implementation of more advanced AI, the current AI implementation is still very simple.
If you're looking for a ready-made AI solution, the current version (8.03) of Ca3DE will not provide you one. If you're however interested in developing such a solution and implement it in the Ca3DE DeathMatch MOD, you're more than welcome.

If you've more questions (either general or specific to implementing AI in Ca3DE), just let me know. I'll be happy to help.
