Billy Connors developed core navigation and AI systems for the kieranknowles1/csc8508-team-project, focusing on scalable 3D pathfinding and gameplay stability. He implemented raycasting and navigation mesh foundations in C++ and GLSL, enabling AI entities to sense, navigate, and interact with the environment using A* algorithms and state machines. His work included refactoring the AI core, integrating height data, and building systems for dynamic AI difficulty scaling and combat. By enhancing UI elements and optimizing performance, Billy improved both player experience and maintainability. The depth of his engineering addressed complex navigation, rendering, and AI challenges within a robust game framework.
