Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

The system supports Linear, Bezier, and Curved paths, obstacle avoidance with raycasting, and flexible loop modes, providing a range of functionalities to suit various gameplay needs.
Key Features:
- Multiple Path Types: Choose between Linear, Bezier, or Curved (Catmull-Rom) paths for varied movement styles.

- Obstacle Avoidance: Built-in raycast-based avoidance system with customizable ray count, avoidance layers, and tags.
- Smooth Steering: Objects smoothly rotate and steer towards the next waypoint, including avoidance adjustments.
- Fully Customizable: Control movement types (Rigidbody, CharacterController, General), path curviness, avoidance strength, and raycasting distance.
- Curved Path Restrictions: When using Curved paths, only 'Loop' and 'None' modes are available to ensure smooth, seamless movement.
- Gizmos Support: Visualize waypoints, paths, and avoidance raycasts directly in the Unity Editor for easy tweaking and debugging.
- Editor Tools: Add, remove, or reorder waypoints directly from the editor. Dynamic titles and visual organization for a clean workflow.

- Editor Integration: Intuitive editor interface with support for waypoint management, gizmo visualization, and path configuration.
Usage Scenarios:
- AI patrol systems for guards, animals, or NPCs.
