HTN

Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) is an extension of Goal Oriented Action Planning (GOAP). Where GOAP has the actor choosing from a list of simple tasks, HTN has complex tasks that are essentially an array of tasks.

Look into strategy pattern to see if it can be useful for the HTN engine.

Use ShipPrototype for some idea on personal implementation of GOAP.
