Unity Pathfinding
NavMesh
Arena V2 uses Unity's NavMesh system for A* pathfinding. For some reason, they have never quite updated it to work well in 2d, but there is a free package someone made called NavMeshPlus that works well. The video below walks through how to install and set it up in your project. These are essentially the steps that I used to setup in Arena V2.

In-Class Code Critique
Code Review Files
In-class we had an AI Coding assistant help us generate a new enemy using our well-defined and modular systems. Here is what it came up with.
- AgentSoldier.cs - Main agent behavior controller
- ChargeBehavior.cs - Charging attack behavior implementation
- DashAttackBehavior.cs - Dash attack mechanics
- RetreatBehavior.cs - Strategic retreat behavior
As you review each file, consider:
- Functionality: Does this code do what it is supposed to?
- Code Organization: How well is the code structured and organized? Is it consistent with our systems?
- Performance: Are there any potential performance concerns?
- Maintainability: How easy would this code be to modify or extend?
- Best Practices: Does the code follow Unity and C# best practices?
