Update: ALPHA v1.062

AI Optimizations

As the year is coming to a close, development has continued with Barricade. This time I put some focus into optimizing and improving the AI, updating to Godot's 3.5 NavServer for path finding, and fixing bugs (while probably creating a load of new ones). All this was done in order to pave the path for new enemies to be added to the game. I knew the code the original AI was designed with wasn't going to hold up for release, and if I added more enemies it would have meant even more refactors later.

More Settings Options

When it comes to settings, you can never have too many. I've been on the lookout for more settings to add to the game and I'm open to suggestions. I've added a FOV slider, as an FPS player myself this should be a staple for any FPS game. I've also added a Disable UI option for players who want to take cinematic screenshots and videos. (Or for you masochists that may enjoy the game this way).
