Constructing PvE Modes

[CPU101-1951]

Since the workshop was added, one thing I wanted to see and experiment with was constructing a mode similar to the Archive Missions. It’s a tall order, and will require a lot of construction of small tools to make it work.

Disclaimer: I’m coming at this with minimal programming experience, so a lot of what I’ve done is look at how other creators have developed features for their games, then tried to replicate them from scratch. If there’s already a post with someone who has approached this before, a link to that discussion would be appreciated.

If you want to use dummy bots and have trouble with their navigation on the map, I made a resource you can use for that:

[Resource] Graph-based Pathfinding Algorithm for Dummy Bots

This is a pathfinding/navigation algorithm for dummy bots that works on a map specific graph. I originally made it for one of my own modes, but I want to share it as an easily integratable resource. By using this resource you can make dummy bots walk from any position to any other position of the map, if you have the corresponding graph. Share code: MF6V4 - Version 1.01

What is a graph?

A graph can be imagined as a network. It consists of a set of nodes, wich are connected by edges. For an Ov…

Thanks. This is definitely a good resource. I have a laundry list of utilities I wanted to cover, but enemy behavior and Pathfinding was one of the things I was going to mention still needing to work on.
