BTPlayer
========

**Inherits:** 

Player of :ref:`BehaviorTree<class_BehaviorTree>` resources.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

BTPlayer node is used for the instantiation and playback of :ref:`BehaviorTree<class_BehaviorTree>` resources at runtime. During instantiation, the behavior tree instance is initialized with a reference to the agent and the :ref:`blackboard<class_BTPlayer_property_blackboard>`. Agent is the owner of the BTPlayer node (see :ref:`Node.owner<class_Node_member_owner>`).

For an introduction to behavior trees, see :ref:`BehaviorTree<class_BehaviorTree>`.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_BTPlayer_method_get_last_status:
