Hi,
you can use state machines.
You can find an example for AI in a soccer game in the book:
Learning Game AI by Example.
It is written in C++, but it is not that hard to make something similar in Lite-C (if you understand the CODE).
Someone in the Forum has done it, already. Maybe contact him. I think it's more than 1 or 2 years ago.
Bye G.S.
