How to Show a Path to a Target | AI Series Part 31

Learn how to show your players a path to their target destination! A great tool for tutorials, debug visualizations, and providing in-context directions for your players. We'll achieve this using the built in NavMesh + Navigation System, but don't worry - no NavMeshAgent required! This works perfectly with a First Person Controller, or Third Person Controller. Actually we're using the Unity Standard Assets for the Controller.
