Hi clone45

How does your code go? If you could only fix that bug (your code is great, even without A*)...

cheers, snake67

Sorry for the stupid post of mine , didnt read the rest of the thread so didnt know you were working on entity blockage!!

Hi snake! I PM'ed you a while ago with a potential fix. I guess you didn't get it?

Well, I have some bad news and some good news. The bad news first. Although I'm making progress on the A* pathfinding additions, it's going VERY slowly. So slow that I fear that it won't get done. The problem is twofold: 1) This stuff is insanely hard to debug, and I must have a doozie of a bug in there. 2) My new programming job is taking up 9+ hours a day, and when I get home, the last thing I want to do is spend more time coding.

But all is not completely lost. I give you >> open box with golden light shining out << The Source!

Yes, it's now open source!! Woo hoo! I apologize profusely that I won't be able to put enough developement time in to finish it myself. However, more good news is that the node based portion of this code is pretty stable, which is cool.

Please spread the word to the community!!

Hey, thanks a lot! I will give it a try immediatly...

Oh, where is pathfind.dll? I got no Visual C++ to compile...

Woah thanks clone! You're a pimp! And it even compiles perfectly with VC++.NET!

Hi Snake! Try the original link. I believe I simply updated the .zip file and the new version of the .dll should be what you want. In other words, pf_to_ent() should return 0 if there's no path:

Hey, thanks a lot!

Hey I'm sorry to bump such an old topic but now that this is open source is there any way to remove the trial version text. I'm assuming that this is now free?

Wow thanks it is greatly appreciated Quick question sorry to go off topic what would you suggest I use to compile it with... Dont have no C+ development tools. Anything thats decent and free that ya know of that will get the job done. Thanks again.

I tried compiling it with Bloodshed Dev-C++ and got a ton of error messages. Can anyone compile this with the trial version text removed assuming clone45 has released this as freeware and we're allowed to remove it.
