Abstract
Systems and methods are described to enable the creation and use of one or more interest meshes that may comprise interest values associated with points of interest in a virtual environment. A mesh may adapt to different environments and may be automatically created based on predefined criteria used to assign interest values to digital assets or points (e.g., coordinates) in the virtual environment. The virtual environment may use a mesh to guide a user toward points of interest by determining desired positions and viewpoint orientations for the user and guiding the user from point to point. Further, events may be triggered in the virtual environment that may change one or more meshes and/or create a new point of interest for a user. The user may then be guided using the changed mesh(es) to points of interest, including new points of interest.
