Learn how NavMeshAgent obstacle avoidance works... in DEPTH! In this deep dive into NavMeshAgent avoidance you'll learn 5 key takeaways for improving NavMeshAgent avoidance using the Unity Navigation System - no external assets needed!

The demo scene has 3 scenarios to run:

1. 1 on 1 scenario - preview agent avoidance in a controlled environment
2. Circle Scenario - Spawns 100 (configurable) agents in a circle and sends them all to the opposite point on the circle, creating a traffic jam in the middle
3. Narrow Pathways Scenario - Spawns 4 groups of 25 agents (configurable) and sends them to the opposite corner through a narrow pathway creating a traffic jam

Scenario 2 and 3 are recreated from the examples on the RVO website
