I just watched a tank shoot at the deer point blank to knock it down and then run over it. The deer promptly got back up and started running away.

The deer currently has a 4-star rating, and I don't know how it's going to remove those stars since it doesn't look like it's programmed to try and hide from the police. Looks like it's a fugitive for life.

EDIT: Okay the stars went away, not sure how that happened. It's been a while since I've played.

EDIT2: I think I know what happened. The deer was in the airport, and that gets you automatic police attention. As soon as the deer was chased out of the airport by the tanks, the stars went away.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Too bad he can't use his antlers...

It looks like it can or is maybe learning to. Two guys were standing on the sidewalk and it just murdered one with its antlers or possibly a head-butt. It was about to go for the second but suddenly re-spawned in the airport for some reason.

Afterwards i saw it too... I wonder of those are se pre-programmed actions or he is actually learning...

Sad to say that it's better viewing than almost all free-to-air TV in Australia. Someone should extend this to script a series of characters in various games and automate Twitch production to make a living.

Honestly, why not though? Write a sufficient enough AI, get your camera angles right, and slow down the decision tree with some dialogue, and you've essentially got a movie. Not saying it'll be grand, but it certainly won't be the worst thing produced in a given year; probably guaranteed to be the best for a given cost.

It's likely the mod that is being used for the stream that just cleared it (periodically maybe, like the teleportation?)

In GTA, you'd have to die or get away from the police long enough to lose the stars, and obviously the deer did neither...

Modification of GTA V that creates and follows a deer wandering through the fictional state of San Andreas. The deer character is autonomous and will wander and respond to it's surroundings, interacting with the existing GTA V artifical intelligence.

More information from its creator here: http://bwatanabe.com/GTA_V_WanderingDeer.html

I just watched the deer teleport to a new random location, so it's definitely that.

It was probably teleported into the airport, then shot at by the police and army for a while until it was teleported out.
