The notebook

Things I’ve
figured out.

Build notes, a few bugs, and what happened next.

A* Pathfinding in My RTS

My units could move and fight, but obstacles blocked a straight route. I added a navigation grid and A* to find a path around them.

After box selection, I worked on moving selected units as a group and getting them to attack. That exposed spacing and collision problems.

Building selection for my minimalist C++ RTS: single-unit selection, multi-selection, drag-box selection, movement, and the bugs I hit along the way.
