3 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoWhat is this AI technique called? How would I go about this problem?
Say I have a game that is similar to the game Snake. You know the game where a snake is moving around trying to eat the red dot, growing each time it eats the red dot? The controls are similar but the snake doesn't grow each time it eats the dot and the snake is just 1 unit long, so there is no problem with the snake running into itself. Also in my game there are obstacles in which the snake cannot run into on it's way to the red dot.
My question is, what is this AI problem called, where an objects tries to form a path to another object without hitting obstacles? Any suggestions to solve this problem? What would I need to Google to research this?

1 AnswerProgramming & Design1 decade agoThere is something wrong with my Python code. Nothing too hard.?
Here is my code but for some reason I can't figure out why it won't work! I think it has to do with "elif input > "10": " but I don't know. The problem is that the program outputs "You number is too high!" even though the number is under 10. Oh replace the (-) character with the tab button. 2 (-)'s = 1 tab.
#It's the guesss the number game!
print "*****This is the Guess The Number Game******"
print "Guess a number from 1 - 10."
print "Type 'exit' to leave the game." #remember to add the exit command!
print "Now start guessing a number from 1 - 10!\n"
input
trynumber = 1
while input != "e":
--input = raw_input("Your guess is ")
--if input == "6":
----print "****You win!****"
----break
--elif input > "10":
----print "Your number is too high!\n"
--elif input < "1":
----print "Your number is too low!\n"
--else:
----print "\n"
--print "Try number",
--print trynumber
--trynumber += 1
