Adding static objects onto recast mesh at runtime

#1

As part of my project I want the user to be able to specify a json input script which contains the positions of certain key objects/buildings which will be static after being placed

Is there an easy/quick way to do this. I have been trying to use GraphUpdateObject and then updating the graphs but not having any luck and even one object is taking nearly 2 minutes

Hi

Do these objects cover a sizable fraction of the world? If so, it might be faster to use AstarPath.Scan instead.

What kind of resolution of the graph are you using? 2 minutes is a long time.

In the beta version, recast graph updates are also faster.

#3

Compared to the size of the world they are insignificant. I am using the bounds to call AStarPath.active.UpdateGraphs(guo) but it does not seem to be making any changes

#4

Do the objects show up in the navmesh if you scan the graph manually in the inspector?

#5

Yeah it works fine if i do it that way

#6

Are you sure the bounding boxes are correct?

#7

Double checked the collider I was using for the bounds. Because I was repositioning the object and then trying to update the graph, the collider hadn’t had time to update.

Fixed now, thanks!
