Documentation

This documentation is primarily intended for developers and researchers striving to create AI simulations compatible with ICT’s efforts for the Training Simulation Software (TSS) component of the Synthetic Training Environment (STE).

If you’ve just acquired the RIDE API and are looking to start developing, review the Quickstart information and Tutorials pages. 

The API has been designed to be independent of any particular game or simulation engine. The current implementation uses Unity, with other implementations under consideration.
