Enemy Skills by Example - AoE Poison Gas Skill | AI Series Part 24

We're creating a new implementation of a SkillScriptableObject, Poison Gas. This will be an instant-cast skill, meaning the enemy will not stop doing anything, and just use the ability. Instant cast skills are generally less powerful and have shorter cooldowns than channeled abilities because they don't have a negative consequence (other than perhaps resource constraints such as mana) to the caster.

In this tutorial we're expanding on what we did in the last several tutorials, AI Series Part 21, 22, and 23. If you haven't checked out those GO BACK! It's super important to understand the foundational code we implemented there that we're building on in this video!

We'll configure a particle system and show a damage aura (sprite from Essential UI Pack: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/gui/essential-ui-pack-73670?_aid=1101l9QvC)
