# Drama Management Systems
|
|
|
|
## 매 한 줄
|
|
> **"매 game 의 author 의 intended pacing / arc 의 maintain 의 AI"**. 매 player agency ↔ author intent 의 tension 의 mediate. 매 famous: Façade (Mateas & Stern), Storytron (Crawford), Left 4 Dead AI Director. 매 modern: 매 LLM 의 dynamic story.
|
|
|
|
## 매 핵심
|
|
|
|
### 매 motivation
|
|
- **Plot vs play**: 매 player 의 freedom + author 의 arc.
|
|
- **Pacing**: 매 tension curve 의 maintain.
|
|
- **Coherence**: 매 character / setting 의 consistent.
|
|
|
|
### 매 famous example
|
|
- **Façade** (Mateas & Stern, 2005): 매 ABL behavior + plot points.
|
|
- **Storytron** (Crawford): 매 character-driven.
|
|
- **Left 4 Dead Director** (Valve): 매 pacing + drama.
|
|
- **AI Dungeon**: 매 GPT-driven.
|
|
- **Inkle (Heaven's Vault, 80 Days)**: 매 ink narrative scripting.
|
|
|
|
### 매 architecture pattern
|
|
- **Plot-point manager**: 매 must-hit beat.
|
|
- **Character authority**: 매 NPC autonomy.
|
|
- **Pacing controller**: 매 tension curve.
|
|
- **Coherence guardian**: 매 contradiction 의 detect.
|
|
|
|
### 매 method
|
|
- **Search-based** (Roberts/Riedl): 매 plot tree 의 search.
|
|
- **Beat-based**: 매 narrative beat 의 sequence.
|
|
- **Constraint-based**: 매 author intent 의 constraint.
|
|
- **LLM-based**: 매 token 의 narrative.
|
|
|
|
### 매 응용
|
|
1. **RPG**: 매 quest pacing.
|
|
2. **Interactive fiction**: 매 plot.
|
|
3. **Sim**: 매 emergent story.
|
|
4. **Educational**: 매 lesson narrative.
|
|
5. **VR experience**: 매 presence + arc.
|
|
|
|
## 💻 패턴
|
|
|
|
### Plot-point manager
|
|
```python
|
|
class PlotPointManager:
|
|
def __init__(self, plot_points):
|
|
self.points = plot_points # 매 ordered required events
|
|
self.completed = []
|
|
|
|
def hint(self, world_state):
|
|
"""매 next required point 의 condition 의 nudge."""
|
|
for p in self.points:
|
|
if p not in self.completed and p.preconditions(world_state):
|
|
return p.suggest_nudge(world_state)
|
|
return None
|
|
|
|
def mark_complete(self, point):
|
|
self.completed.append(point)
|
|
|
|
# 매 example
|
|
plot = [
|
|
PlotPoint('meet_mentor', preconditions=lambda w: w.location == 'tavern'),
|
|
PlotPoint('learn_skill', preconditions=lambda w: 'meet_mentor' in w.events),
|
|
PlotPoint('confront_villain', preconditions=lambda w: 'learn_skill' in w.events),
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Pacing controller (tension curve)
|
|
```python
|
|
class PacingController:
|
|
def __init__(self):
|
|
# 매 ideal 5-act curve
|
|
self.target = lambda t: 4 * t * (1 - t) + 0.2 * np.sin(20 * t)
|
|
|
|
def desired_tension(self, story_progress):
|
|
return self.target(story_progress) # 매 0 to 1
|
|
|
|
def adjust(self, current_tension, story_progress):
|
|
target = self.desired_tension(story_progress)
|
|
if current_tension < target - 0.1:
|
|
return 'introduce_conflict'
|
|
elif current_tension > target + 0.1:
|
|
return 'introduce_calm'
|
|
return 'maintain'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Beat-based (Mateas-style)
|
|
```python
|
|
class Beat:
|
|
def __init__(self, name, preconditions, characters, duration):
|
|
self.name = name
|
|
self.preconditions = preconditions
|
|
self.characters = characters
|
|
self.duration = duration
|
|
|
|
def can_fire(self, world):
|
|
return all(c(world) for c in self.preconditions)
|
|
|
|
class DramaManager:
|
|
def __init__(self, beats):
|
|
self.beats = beats
|
|
self.active_beat = None
|
|
|
|
def select_beat(self, world):
|
|
candidates = [b for b in self.beats if b.can_fire(world)]
|
|
# 매 score by drama value
|
|
return max(candidates, key=lambda b: b.drama_score(world))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Search-based (declarative author intent)
|
|
```python
|
|
import heapq
|
|
|
|
def best_first_search(state, author_intent, max_depth=10):
|
|
"""매 plot search 의 author 의 maximize."""
|
|
queue = [(0, state, [])]
|
|
while queue:
|
|
score, s, path = heapq.heappop(queue)
|
|
if author_intent.satisfied(s) or len(path) >= max_depth:
|
|
return path
|
|
for action in s.legal_actions():
|
|
new_s = s.apply(action)
|
|
new_score = -author_intent.evaluate(new_s)
|
|
heapq.heappush(queue, (new_score, new_s, path + [action]))
|
|
return None
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### LLM-based dynamic story
|
|
```python
|
|
def llm_drama_step(world_state, history, author_intent):
|
|
prompt = f"""You are a drama manager. Author intent: "{author_intent}"
|
|
|
|
Recent history:
|
|
{format_history(history[-5:])}
|
|
|
|
World state: {world_state}
|
|
|
|
Output the next narrative beat that:
|
|
1. Honors player choice (do NOT railroad)
|
|
2. Moves toward author intent
|
|
3. Maintains pacing (current tension: {tension})
|
|
4. Stays consistent with character traits
|
|
|
|
Beat (JSON): {{ "type": "...", "description": "...", "characters": [...], "consequences": {{...}} }}"""
|
|
return llm.generate(prompt)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Coherence guardian
|
|
```python
|
|
class CoherenceCheck:
|
|
def __init__(self, kb):
|
|
self.kb = kb # 매 character traits, world facts
|
|
|
|
def validate(self, beat):
|
|
contradictions = []
|
|
for fact in self.kb.facts:
|
|
if beat.contradicts(fact):
|
|
contradictions.append((beat, fact))
|
|
return contradictions
|
|
|
|
def auto_fix(self, beat):
|
|
# 매 LLM 의 use 의 reword
|
|
contras = self.validate(beat)
|
|
if contras:
|
|
return llm.fix_contradictions(beat, contras)
|
|
return beat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Inkle ink-style (declarative narrative)
|
|
```ink
|
|
=== meet_mentor ===
|
|
The old wizard turns. "You've come at last."
|
|
* [Bow] -> bow_branch
|
|
* [Question] -> question_branch
|
|
- -> learn_skill
|
|
|
|
=== bow_branch ===
|
|
You bow deeply. He nods.
|
|
~ respect += 1
|
|
-> learn_skill
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AI Director-style pacing (Valve)
|
|
```python
|
|
class L4DDirector:
|
|
"""매 Left 4 Dead pacing AI."""
|
|
def __init__(self):
|
|
self.intensity = 0 # 매 0-1
|
|
|
|
def update(self, players):
|
|
# 매 measure recent danger
|
|
recent_damage = sum(p.recent_damage for p in players)
|
|
recent_kills = sum(p.recent_kills for p in players)
|
|
|
|
self.intensity = min(1, recent_damage / 100 + recent_kills / 20)
|
|
|
|
def decide(self):
|
|
if self.intensity > 0.7:
|
|
return 'relaxation' # 매 calm period
|
|
elif self.intensity < 0.3:
|
|
return 'build_up' # 매 zombie wave
|
|
return 'sustain'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Player model integration
|
|
```python
|
|
def adapt_drama(player_history):
|
|
"""매 player preference 의 drama 의 tune."""
|
|
if player_history.combat_seek_count > 10:
|
|
return 'combat_heavy'
|
|
if player_history.dialog_engagement > 5:
|
|
return 'dialog_heavy'
|
|
return 'balanced'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 매 결정 기준
|
|
| 상황 | Approach |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Linear story | Plot-point manager |
|
|
| Emergent | Beat + character authority |
|
|
| Action-paced | AI Director (Valve) |
|
|
| Branching narrative | Inkle / Yarn |
|
|
| Open-ended LLM | GPT + author constraint |
|
|
| Educational | Lesson-arc + scaffold |
|
|
|
|
**기본값**: 매 hybrid — 매 plot-point + character authority + LLM dialog + coherence guardian.

## 🤖 LLM 활용
|
|
**언제**: 매 narrative game. 매 interactive fiction. 매 dynamic story.
|
|
**언제 X**: 매 strict scripted (no agency). 매 pure sim.
|
|
|
|
## ❌ 안티패턴
|
|
- **Railroad**: 매 player choice 의 fake.
|
|
- **No coherence check**: 매 contradiction story.
|
|
- **LLM-only**: 매 author intent 의 lose.
|
|
- **Static beat**: 매 player adaptation X.
|
|
- **Drama at all cost**: 매 player frustrate.
|
|

|
## 🧪 검증 / 중복
|
|
- Verified (Façade paper, Roberts/Riedl, Crawford).
