I was introduced to the QFG series about the time that the QFG1 remake was released.  I had possibly seen them earlier, but that was the first time I really got a chance to play them for myself. So You Want To Be A Hero was a wonderful start, clearly showing the potential that the series had, but I ...

Does anybody know what  type of pathfinding algorithm AGS uses for character movement?  I'm in the middle of designing my own game engine (not that I don't want to use AGS, but I'm using this game engine project as a motivation for me to finetune my Java skills) and the best option that I've come up...
