I watched a really cool video on pathfinding robots once. I decided to make it into a gui to visualize it.
The pathfinding has been implemented. Place walls by clicking and run the algorithm using 'E'.
- Running the program will begin the game client. The client is written in Java utilizing the AWT library.
Player controls are the four arrow keys. Pressing E will re-calculate the path shown in blue Place walls using the left mouse button
Built using Java 8.
This was my first time ever seeing the A* pathfinding algorithm. I thought it was really cool and set out to learn it on my own. I'm very proud of how it turned out, being a very fun project and helped me to turn a wikipedia page into a working algorithm.
