This happens very often in a frame, so it needs to be fast. Return Get_Path_Grid(target_tile).Get_Pathing_Direction(source_tile) ДЇetch next uncached grid and fill it with Djikstra etc. Path Get_Direction(vec2 source_tile, vec2 target_tile) If (cached(tile)) return cached_grids Д®lse 4 bits per entry (neighbour idx, or no path) (X rows contain two entries per cell) Uint Get_Pathing_Direction(vec2 tile) const (Can also return 'path is blocked' or 'path is not yet calculated')

The code interface takes a source tile and a destination tile, and the function returns the direction where the next tile you need to walk to is. I store a direction you need to walk towards if going to any other selected tile.

I chose to try option E, because I liked the simple and elegant implementation (+ performance was guaranteed without trickery).ДЇor every tile, I store a full Djikstra search, i.e. probably not suitable to this game though) Still needs some processing per unit (never seriously looked into it though)Д) Some kind of dynamic flow fields (never really crossed my mind back then, only later noticed that it might be interesting. Many simple games work fine like this.Д«) Do full A* pathfinding when needed (slow to do all paths separately, annoying to do a cache, maybe.)Д¬) Some kind of vector pathfinding graph. Just go towards target with some obstacle avoidance and get stuck if there's a problem.

My gameplay level is 2D grid and I need to know how to get from point A to point B.ДЄ) No path-finding at all. I thought I'd write how it works in my game.Дisclaimer: This is not a guide on how to do a great job at this, this is just how I did it. To enable this, they need to have a very fast path finding method. One key element in the game is that there area a lot of units, and they might be all moving at the same time in the worst case. Not sure, might be time to do some gameplay stuff again. Next up: It's one or two days of work on the level-hub still and then. but need to cut it, too much work to do assets for it. Did the original system because I thought it would look better to have more hand drawn bubbles (variations in shapes etc.). Now it uses a series of hand drawn speech bubble images and picks one with the closest match to the text size, but I'll probably change it to standard 9-slice kind of system as it's much easier to do assets for that. It's a bit cumbersome now though, so I'll probably rework it. Integrated my old speech bubble system to the dialogue system (picture). Also did a quick 'tag replacement' system for it so I can write to the localization strings and get that automatically filled into whatever in-game. Did a new feature to my localization system (grouping strings under one label) so I can write simple dialogue for story characters. Refactored my level exit portal so I can do some future gameplay changes (planning to change how level ends) Also now you leave the hub world through the same level portal that ends normal levels (that should teach the player that it's not something to avoid as it looks a bit threatening) Made a first pass at some proper layout for my hub level and put all new props and characters I drew there
