Navmesh interactive demo example (non phaser)

[wini3d]

perhaps more like a suggestion to have a non-phaser example like the interactive demo.

Happy to accept a pull request for something like that.

The reason why the node demo for non-phaser environments is so minimal is because it doesn't include any game engine at all as a dependency. That's because I suspect folks using it in a node environment may want to use it for server-side logic.

@mikewesthad I see, would another simple 2d engine like kontra.js be enough to cover the example demo?

[mikewesthad]

Ohhh, I see what you are asking about now. You were hoping to see how to use it with another game engine. I don't know kontra.js, but would be happy to accept a pull request with an example demo. If you want to create it as a codesandbox or as a gist/repository, we could link to it from the readme. Alternatively, it could be added as a package under "packages/example-kontra." The first option is probably the easiest/quickest to do.

[wini3d]

Great, yes that was the idea since I am not yet that familiar with it and trying to use it on a custom or generic 2d engine and kontra seems to be simple enough if it gets integrated with it.

@Wenish Cool! Thanks for sharing. Does it depend on the server sending some commands to the client for the agent to move? When I load up the client, it just seems to be a sphere sitting there.

[mikewesthad]

Nevermind - right click to move! Added to the readme.

This demo does not appear to be working any more.
