advanced pathfinding

[Skyhunter]

I started to code with advanced pathfinding object because i saw some posts it works in swf exporter, but when i try to export swf, it says:
Immposible to save the SWF file: the SWF version of the following extension is missing
APF

I downloaded the APF again, installed it and still the same thing. ???
help!

Ahh, sry i am such an idiot it's actually Advanced Path Movement that can export to swf... Well anyway.

No pathfinding extensions work with flash as yet. The best work-around is to write your own. Depending on the complexity of your game, you can get efficient pathfinding with the MMF2 editor and fast loops.

For example, I wrote one based on a 16x16 grid for a single character that runs with no slow down. It took about 6 hours of work to get my head around and implement it.

However, if you're looking to use it for 50+ characters on a grid in the hundreds, you might be bashing your head against a wall to get it running smoothly.
