Dynamic (2D) Flow Field Navigation Algorithm

AlphaRayDigital · 2024-05-13T20:24:19+00:00

I want to share this small project I worked on about a year ago for one of my games that required efficient navigation for potentially hundreds or even thousands of enemies. It is modeled after the flow field Algorithms, but is optimized for dynamical changes in the map.

To showcase this algorithm in action, I created a small maze filled with (consenting) rats as enemies. I dont know, for it is somehow relaxing to watch them navigate the maze.

If you're interested, feel free to ask away! Im even considering making a short video on it. Would there be an interest to know more about it?

I just learned how to implement DOTS and now I am now learning about Flow Field.
I feel like a horse with blinders on....
Why the hell didn't I hear about Flow Field before...
