In this project you will be introduced to navigation meshes and learn to use them in a game environment to move characters between goals. You will develop AI algorithms that command characters to find the path between their current location and destination using the navigation mesh as the waypoint system. The waypoint mecanics in the previous section will be reworked to use a navigation mesh rather than predefined straight lines between points. This will make for more dynamic and intelligent appearing non-player characters.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to set-up UI Navigation within your project.

In this tutorial students will learn about the principles and theory behind navigation meshes and how to construct one in Unity.

Unity Editor controls are designed to work optimally with a keyboard and a two- or three-button mouse. In this tutorial, you'll learn the basic controls for navigating in Unity.

Help your basic AI enemies find their way around your FPS level by 'baking' the Navigation Mesh (or 'NavMesh').

NavMesh Components make up the navigation system in Unity. The navigation system allows users to create characters that can intelligently move around the game world, using navigation meshes that are created automatically from your Scene geometry. Dynamic obstacles allow users to alter the navigation of the characters at runtime, while off-mesh links build specific actions like opening doors or jumping down from a ledge.

In this tutorial students will learn about graphs and why they are a fundamental data structure in AI for controlling behaviours, navigation, animations and much more.

In this tutorial students will transfer the knowledge they've obtained for building waypoint systems and add these to a navigation mesh.

In this tutorial, you will review: The Unity Editor interface The role of scenes in Unity Navigation in a scene

In this tutorial students will add an extra goal to the patient to make them go home after they are treated and fix a pesky little bug in the navigation mesh system.
