  		 does anybody know a tutorial (or a simple way explainable) to make a multi-pathfinding with
 
 - different starts
 - different paths
 - different destinations
 
 ?

  		 Pathfinding object - if I put a second one, the first one doesnt work yet.
 Grid Object - never had suscessfull to make a pathfinding by myself
 Advanced Path Movement - it crashes when there are 2 apm objects or more
 
 well, exist a MMF tutorial site? ^_

  		 omg... never use 2 objects for pathfinding... that's slow...(in the tests for the snowbattle games, I used 1 pathfinding object for more than 40 units)
 This is how you do...
 Find a path and then record the path to an array, this is much faster as you only need to find a new path when a new order is issued...
 Then read the array step by step until you reach your target... If you want a new target, calculate a new path and write it to the array (writing over the old one)..
 
 Hopw this helps some...
 
 Never used any tutorials on this subject, just experimented for a while..

  		 Here is a great example using the pathfinder extension (I think).

  		 ahhhh great
 
 this one actually makes the stuff go in the same destination, while I'd like to have different ones but maybe with the suggested method of daniel I could be able to fix that.
 
 many thanks, professional.
