namespace Pathfinding.Examples {
	/// <summary>
	/// RichAI for local space (pathfinding on moving graphs).
	///
	/// What this script does is that it fakes graph movement.
	/// It can be seen in the example scene called 'Moving' where
	/// a character is pathfinding on top of a moving ship.
	/// The graph does not actually move in that example
	/// instead there is some 'cheating' going on.
	///
	/// When requesting a path, we first transform
	/// the start and end positions of the path request
	/// into local space for the object we are moving on
	/// (e.g the ship in the example scene), then when we get the
	/// path back, they will still be in these local coordinates.
	/// When following the path, we will every frame transform
	/// the coordinates of the waypoints in the path to global
	/// coordinates so that we can follow them.
	///
	/// At the start of the game (when the graph is scanned) the
	/// object we are moving on should be at a valid position on the graph and
	/// you should attach the <see cref="Pathfinding.LocalSpaceGraph"/> component to it. The <see cref="Pathfinding.LocalSpaceGraph"/>
	/// component will store the position and orientation of the object right there are the start
	/// and then we can use that information to transform coordinates back to that region of the graph
	/// as if the object had not moved at all.
	///
	/// This functionality is only implemented for the RichAI
	/// script, however it should not be hard to
	/// use the same approach for other movement scripts.
