Oger-Lord Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hey, I read the pathfinding work news on moddb and now I have a question about your pathfinding system.How do you manage to recalculate the path only for the affected units when a building is constructed/destroyed?Do you divide the map into areas and then check the area where the changes are and look which units have a pathfinding with jump points in the same area?

Ykkrosh Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 In the old and currently-being-worked-on designs, we don't recalculate paths for units. Once they've started to move and have picked a path, they'll carry on using that path forever, unless they crash into an obstacle and have to stop and pick a new path. That's maybe not ideal behaviour, but it works okay for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
