Re: [glob2-devel] Gradient concept

[Hein-Pieter van Braam]

Well, I don't know the exact details of the thing, but it's used for 
pathfinding.

A gradient is well, a gradient :) a grid, with a piece of the map in it, each 
piece gets a value from 0(accessible) to 255(not accessible) a globule will 
always try to move towards the lowest possible value square.

that's also how guard areas and forbidden areas work.

basically

this is overly simplified, but I must say I'm still figuring out exactly how 
it works.

hope this helps!
