Continuous Control

Continuous control in the context of playing games, especially within artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), refers to the ability to make a series of smooth, ongoing adjustments or actions to control a game or a simulation. This is in contrast to discrete control, where the actions are limited to a set of specific, distinct choices. Continuous control is crucial in environments where precision, timing, and the magnitude of actions matter, such as driving a car in a racing game, controlling a character in a simulation, or managing the flight of an aircraft in a flight simulator.
