AI A*?

Well, I heard of this AI called A*, but I'm not too sure what exactlly the type of AI it is, or how to use it. Can anyone clarify?

Its as path finding algorithm to find the shortest cost route from the current position to a target position.

Re: AI A*?

That's the site I was pointed to when I asked about pathfinding too. Smile  I actually wrote a Lua version of Dijkstra's Algorithm, which is similar to A* but without the heuristic (it is described at the bottom of that article) because it did exactly what I was looking for.  If you're interested I could clean it up a bit and post it.

Re: AI A*?

Yep, this is where I learned Lua almost two months ago now (has it been that long already? sheesh).  Smile So I figured I might come back and contribute a bit of help.  Anyway, should I post it here or somewhere else?  I'm still finding my way around these forums.
