NavMeshAgent.CalculatePath

Switch to Manual
public function CalculatePath(targetPosition: Vector3, path: NavMeshPath): bool;

Parameters

targetPosition The final position of the path requested.
path The resulting path.

Returns

bool True if a path is found.

Description

Calculate a path to a specified point and store the resulting path.

This function can be used to plan a path ahead of time to avoid a delay in gameplay when the path is needed. Another use is to check if a target position is reachable before moving the agent.

	var target: Transform;

private var agent: NavMeshAgent;

function Start () { agent = GetComponent.<NavMeshAgent>(); var path: NavMeshPath; agent.CalculatePath(target.position, path); if (path.status == NavMeshPathStatus.PathPartial) { // The target cannot be reached... } }
