NavMesh Basics - Introduction to the NavMeshSurface | AI Series Part 1

In this video you'll learn what NavMeshes are, how to get the NavMesh Components from the Unity Github (which is what you should be using!) and cover the basics you need to know when setting up your first NavMesh.

We'll also go over:

⚫ How to make Click-to-Move on a NavMesh.

⚫ How to make an Enemy follow a Player on a NavMesh.

⚫ How to have different they work.

⚫ What the configurations do on NavMeshAgent and NavMeshSurface.

⚫ How to have multiple NavMeshes in a scene.

⚫ Put together a simple click-to-move scene with an enemy that follows the player.

This is Part 1 of the AI Series, the Introduction to NavMeshes in Unity. It's a basic, introductory level video where you don't need a lot of Unity experience or coding experience to get it working!

As usual with the AI Series, we're using the NavMesh Components: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/NavMesh-BuildingComponents.html not the built-in navigation system.
