Extractors management

Why Autonomous Life manages Extractors

Autonomous Life starts and stops extractors to provide it with Context about the environment. This data is used in Launch trigger conditions that you can use for autonomously starting Activities.

Depending on States, different extractors are started to optimize the robot’s goals, with consideration for CPU consumption.
