Imagine:
1. You have an actor you control. ("player")
2. An actor which always moves towards to it. ("monster")
3. A some kind of a maze from square walls. ("wall")
How do you do that the actor "2" flies towards to "1" and avoid touching "3"? I mean figures out the shortest way to go around "wall" and try to get "player"???
Hey fine gurues! I've got really stuck with this...

The next version, 1.3.6, will come with a new option (avoid) in the 'Move To' action. So, you can move actors through a maze with a single action.

Will be released in the next days

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu nice!

But how do I make it using code?
I won't have any opportunity to buy 1.3.6 for some time (don't have credit card, time to get it).
Is it possible to do it in 1.3.3?

You need use some path finder algorithm, like A*

Where do I get information about it?

The next version, 1.3.6, will come with a new option (avoid) in the 'Move To' action.

Sounds awesome.
Will there be any way of specifying which actors to avoid?

Thank you.
It sounds quite har to do it.
By the way, will new version introduce new interface?
