Hi guys!

Right now I'm making my Bachelor-Thesis and its about time i finish it (got 2 weeks left). Thats why im desperately looking for a mentor, who understands a lot about all kinds of computer science.
My Bachelor-Thesis will be about Pathfinding with Raycasts in AGK2 - and therefore I need to do research about Pathfindings and do some Benchmarking for Pathfinding Algorithms and so on and so forth.
It seems so hard for that short time

Sooo anyone here willing to help?

i dunno if im up to this task but A* is always a good point to start with path finding

aww come on guys, dont be so mean.
Of course i know A*, of course i know how to implement it ~
My Thesis is nearly finished.

I still need help with the calculation of the runtime though.
My questions would be:

How "expensive" is one single raycast in Box2D ?
1 Raycast = XX Grids searched with A*

How much milliseconds does it take to cast one single ray?

I'd say get coding and run some tests

Yep, lecturers/professors love nothing better than providing evidence to back up claims/investigations.

mine prefers some decent mahts like O=|V|+(log|V|² + |V|) while V is the amount of knots and the runtime is in worst case XYZ.
Pretty hard stuff like that...
And i dont quite understand it all
sigh...

anyways...
i talked to him, he said its okay if I make some practical tests - though it would be better to proove my solutions with maths.

anyway, thanks bros

Sounds like big O notation. Google it.
