​Challenges:

​

Problem: Shotgun bullets were sporadic and had abnormal projectile paths

​

Solution: Adjusted the projectile paths but kept the randomness when the bullets were fired to capture a shotgun spray as a design choice.

 

Problem: Trouble navigating the AI raccoons to the coup while using way points and random spawning 

 

Solution: Created a Navmesh for the raccoons to follow in order to have different pathways and to give them a more life like motion
