Hey everybody, my first post(Whoo!). As the subject says I''m having a bit of trouble, namely with pathfinding. I have my tileengine and my entities to run around on it. But this is just an obstacle I can’t tackle myself ... Making them move around walls and such in the same style as the units move in, Warcraft2/Starcraft for example. I have read up on the articles here on Gamedev covering A*, and it seems to be the way to go... But, heh I don’t know if it’s just me being plain stupid, but I’m having some serious trouble understanding and implementing it.(Tried, became one he-- of a mess). So, anyone think they could give me some advice? An ‘A* for dummies’ kind of explanation or something?

Hey!
I've had a problem on pathfinding a few weeks ago.
Look at my post: www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=34696

Maybe it'll help you. Good luck!!!!
