Godot Tutorial -- 2D Navigation and Path Following
283In this Godot Engine tutorial we look at two key functions in AI development, path following and nav mesh naviation. The first is pretty simple, you define a path using a spline and follow it. The second is about creating a nav mesh, which is a set of polygons that tells the engine where you can and cant walk. We then look at the code for determining shortest route paths dynamically.
