Commercial Plugin

Scalable Modular Behaviour (SMB) Plugin

Creator & Solo Developer · Released Commercial Plugin

Architected a commercial C++ UE5 Mass Entity plugin supporting 10,000+ customizable NPCs at 60+ FPS. Integrated selective StateTree execution, custom C++ Mass processors, Smart Objects, NavMesh movement, and network replication. Actively maintained with 12+ shipped updates and provided direct contract work to external studios for plugin integration.

Solo Developer · Rapid Prototype

Built a rapid 24-hour gameplay prototype demonstrating practical integration of the SMB Mass Entity plugin. Features high-density spawning waves, dynamic spatial queries, and real-time C++ Processor-driven combat state resolution for thousands of aggressive AI entities on screen without frame drops.

Solo Developer · SMB Plugin Technical Demo

Architected a dynamic multi-agent resource loop leveraging Mass Entity and Smart Objects. Harvester Agents claim and harvest trees spawning twig entities, while gatherer agents detect, navigate to, and haul scattered twigs to storage. Done using StateTrees for large scale decoupled behaviour.

About

I am a C++ / Unreal Engine Systems Engineer based in Ireland specializing in data-oriented design, Mass Entity (ECS), multiplayer networking, and large-scale simulation.

I'm the creator of Scalable Modular Behaviour (SMB), a commercial UE5 plugin supporting over 10,000 active AI entities at 60 FPS, actively maintained with 12+ shipped updates since launch. My work earned runner-up award for Best Technical Achievement at the 2026 Imirt Irish Game Awards. I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering from Sweden, where my thesis focused on Deep Reinforcement Learning for voltage prediction.
