Unity UI Profiling: How dare you break my Batches? - You spend an infinite amount of time optimizing your Unity UI.

Friday Facts #317 - New pathfinding algorithm - When a unit wants to go somewhere, it first needs to figure out how to get there. That could be as simple as going straight to its goal, but there can be obstacles – such as cliffs, trees, spawners, player entities – in the way. To do that, it will tell the pathfinder its current position and the goal position, and the pathfinder will – possibly after many ticks – reply with a path, which is simply a series of waypoints for the unit to follow in order to get to its destination.
