A^* in Complex World

A more advanced A^* algorithm exercise would be to apply the algorithm to a 3D visual world.

Here is "Complex World", a 3d-visual World (but actually a 2-d movement problem).
The enemy chases the agent, not very intelligently:

The plan:

• Code a more aggressive enemy for Complex World.
• The enemy will use A^* to find best route towards agent.
• Calculate the route and then move one step.
• There will be a new route to calculate every timestep, since every timestep the agent will move.

"Complex World" uses the "Three.js" graphics library:

• To get the nice graphics, this World uses the Three.js graphics library rather than the P5 graphics library.
• Still JavaScript, but a different graphics library.
