In this devlog I share all the scenarios and cases I had to handle in order to implement a Hunter Killer enemy type that uses my implementation of the AStar pathfinding algorithm.

Enemy Pathfinding Checklist

Below is a checklist of the things I had to think about to make the behavior work in any scenario.

• Where is the player or target?
• Handle the player respawning
• What is the goal location?
• What if the primary goal is blocked?
• What if all secondary goals are blocked?
• What if there is no path to the goal?
• What if there is nothing at all open?
• Reached goal, now what?
