I worked on this project starting in December 2023, focusing on creating a high-performance NextBot Base for a Zombie Survival server. My responsibilities included architecture, design, and documentation. A key achievement was designing a “Bot Reachability Cache” to temporarily store nav area reachability, optimizing frequent pathfinding queries.
