In this first of a new series of AI 101 I take a look at navigation meshes: what they are, how they work and how some AAA games exploit them in some pretty interesting ways.
Special thanks to Pauline (The Kebab Dude), Matt (DarkCnix) and Jack (Milk D Seahorse) for helping out filming footage of Tom Clancy's The Division.
