[@NecrosVideos]

Did NOT expect this kind of success on this video! Thank you all so much!

[@kingkiller4630]

"NPC you cant get away from" spends 3 minutes showing it struggle to get up every obstacle

[@NecrosVideos]

Theoretically it should! I just demonstrated the limits of it on a map that doesn’t have a proper nav mesh, and my noob experience with it!

[@Drakey_Fenix]

If I remember correctly you need to restart the map after you've generated a mesh. Otherwise it won't take effect.

[@NecrosVideos]

I tried that and sadly it didn't help :( I am a noob at using this tool though so i'm sure i forgot something

[@actualspongebob4220]

@@NecrosVideos you might wanna try connecting the ladder navmesh box to the nearest navmesh box on the floor

[@Drakey_Fenix]

@@NecrosVideos Oh I see. Sorry to hear that :(

[@tonythomas4823]

@@NecrosVideos add a small navmesh box under the ladder connecting to a nearby tile. Should work then.

[@DACHEPS]

Imagine putting him in an infinite map. You go as far as possible, then put the speed on max and see how long it takes him to reach you.

[@_trashythetrash1087]

I don't think inf map has nav mesh (?)

[@jayboi3488]

@@_trashythetrash1087 it doesn’t have Navmesh.

[@joedingo7022]

Might work on the huge non-infinite maps like the vice city map though, since npcs actually work on those.

[@codaman127]

​@@joedingo7022 Sadly no, Vice city is also an infinite map in it's mechanics. How those maps work is that they're essentially overlapping chunks in the same map playspace. It's complicated, but NPCs can't tell you're in a different chunk. So it's functionally too complex to incorporate navmeshes or nodes yet.

[@chibisayori20]

​@@codaman127 Just make an NPC that doesn't use navmeshes or nodes, and just simply traverses it by constantly moving towards you that doesn't pathfind anything. Sure, NPCs will walk into walls but it's better than nothing.

[@bashcatz]

The creator should add a feature that is a last resort, it will use noclip if it cant find path to you within 12 mins. (Why its twelve minutes is because i dont want it to be too long but i dont want it to be too overpowered either. Edit 2: you should just make it customizable)

[@thatonedude05]

Make it seven minutes. After all, seven minutes is *_all I can spare to play with you._*

[@stidzy0]

it's just a nextbot. it's literally just a nextbot.

[@NecrosVideos]

A persistent one!

[@AMBATUKAMceo]

At least it's not 2d.

[@BrentonTarraints]

​@@AMBATUKAMceo 2D is very lazy

[@EpikIzCool]

I believe you need to regenerate/save with the changes i recommend using nav_walkable and nav_generate. The tool uses all console commands so id check valves wiki on it. The developer wiki should be super useful for yourself

[@Youhadabadday2021]

5:33 As someone who has worked with nav_meshes in order to get TF2 Bots to function on certain maps, this particular instance of failed nav_mesh generation I actually know how to fix! Those blue lines are connectors, much like the cyan lines. However, these connectors are one-way connectors, where as the cyan ones are two-way. The reason the bot isn't jumping here is because of these one-way lines. They connect the upper level to the lower level, but not the other way around, hence why it's not jumping. You can even infer this is the case because you can actually see two-way connectors on the sides of the bottom level of the structure, but not the front, and the bot only jumps up when it's at the left or right of the platform. All you have to do is change those one-way connectors to two-way connectors, and you're set!

[@NecrosVideos]

Thank you so much! This comment helped a lot 🙂

[@gordon_freeman2542]

2:26 I like how the ladder is still there

[@NecrosVideos]

I keep forgetting to reset it! but i loved making that video so it's a memory :D

Good eye :P

[@Redacted_7560]

I swear I had a dream about an NPC similar to this one once... only the one in my dream could also noclip like the player... and the game was super laggy for some reason. I need to go outside more. 🍝

[@limbodomundo5671]

That's genuinely terrifying

[@_serpent_]

Bro I also had a dream similar to that but instead G-Man was chasing me and I was in gm_construct

[@n1xxi3]

He's fast as Male07 nextbot, In flash time they look like they run at normal speed

[@SSCminion]

Doesn't look like anyone answered the question, so I think I can add some help. The reason the NPC can't climb up ladders that aren't already there is because there's no actual navigation mesh at the top for it to connect to. You'd have to also manually add that in yourself. Imagine that there's two floors, and a ladder connecting them. If there's also a staircase connecting the two floors, then when you generate that ladder (which nav_generate doesn't even do in the first place which is stupid) it should theoretically work. Since there's no connection between the top and bottom floor besides that ladder, there won't be a nav mesh in the first place to connect both ends to.

[@NecrosVideos]

Thank you for this comment! I’m learning more about this thanks to these 🙂

[@thing4826]

4:30 haven't used this AI before but unless you save and reload the nav_mesh bots will not recognize changes. 5:00 also red is just the standard color and has no meaning behind it... Someone at VALVe just liked the color red. 5:30 you will notice that the dark blue line is depicting a one-directional link. Meaning in his eyes he can't jump up the tower higher as he can only drop down. (Only reason he jumps up the first one is because one of the sides is light blue meaning bi-directional).

[@ksuose]

Have you checked the mesh at the top of the ladder? So right after the ladder there should be a navigation block that is connected to the ladder mesh. Do let me know if it works or not, and great job on the video! EDIT: The reason why it doesn't work could also be linked to how wide the navigation mesh is(this is probably false but it's worth a shot), meaning if the NPC thinks that it cannot stand on the said platform because the mesh is too tiny, it wouldn't be able to jump on to the platform. Again, this is me assuming things and I'm just listing possible solutions(i program AI, just not in gmod) 😅

[@zarrg5611]

This is like the final evolution of the Sanic clone.

[@Samuel_0]

Really good mods showcases, love this channel

[@mysteryxplayerofficial]

True

[@NecrosVideos]

Hey thank you so much :)

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

This must be a dream. Necros reviewed my addon!

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

I Should really make a tutorial for the ladder creation. my bad.

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

you also have to link the area above the ladder to the area below the ladder and vise versa using the connect option.

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

just made it so ladders work properly and jumping. The map you were using didn't have a proper navmesh that worked with ladders.

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

Just updated the mod so the ladders work properly. Also there’s now a WIP attack animation parameter, jumping should also be working better now.

[@WhatTheBleep24]

@@Mikey-zf1lf that’s a lot of replies you made. Maybe you should make it find a ladder entity instead of a mesh, if possible. Or automatically generate ladder meshes. Also here are some ideas for your addon! Make it so it can interact with buttons in any way possible. Some maps have elevators. S W I M Jump if it’s a shorter path. Go around ledges unless it needs to fall down then to get to the player quicker. Also this mod is great! I had fun messing with it!

[@mr.slappii513]

OMG, combine this with Background npcs, and maybe decent vehicle, and you have a terminator situation. Imagine being in a city map, surrounded by citizens and one of them is after you. It could only be made better if you could spawn it in a random spot with a random model.

[@madhatter2705]

I like how this nextbot type npc plays by the players rules, where it has to run crouch or jump up and climb

[@sergiucauia9419]

the snail pace, is literally the "you are immortal but the momeent the snail touches you youre dead"

once you edited the navigation mesh with the navmesh editor tool always press save navmesh, the button is located at the bottom

[@YourLocalTypicalFisherMan]

bro made a nextbot and tries to brand it as something new 💀 If he never heard of them before and this is brand new to him then my bad

[@ProfessorWaffleYT]

Next bots don't crawl

[@GiggIes1]

Somehow even worse than a regular nextbot, it doesn't jump or have any different pathing it just goes for the straighest line toward you shoving props across the map if they get in the way, it even teleports around if it gets stuck. I was really hoping it could at least scale walls like l4d commons edit: checking it myself the bot can't even kill you if you run in a straight line if you set the speed to anything under ''instantly kills you when you spawn''

[@NecrosVideos]

It can jump! I just did a bad job showcasing that

[@GiggIes1]

@@NecrosVideos I don't think you did a bad job the nextbot is just a sort of lame, I tested the construct secret room and for sure it crouches under the ramp but once you get into the room it backs up and dances around on the floor above, I've only seen it jump once after a couple hours of using it on various maps and that was when it was set to max speed. To see what it can do you'd have to make a map revolved around it I suppose

[@Mikey-zf1lf]

You should check out my addon again. I've fixed the jumping issues and I've also made it completely customizable.

[@Walternity]

You need still to open console and nav_generate after using the tool if I remember correctly

[@Drakey_Fenix]

That's all you need, you don't need the tool. You can do all the functions the tool can via the console as those commands are baked into the Source engine. You need to restart the map in order to make the mesh work.

[@snowob]

this makes me want to look into the capabilities of navmeshes

[@louplesolitaire]

This npc make me remember the monster of the movie "it follows" very scary

[@roxannemacaso]

[@youraveragecarguywithaporsche]

if somebody changed its model to freddy fazbear it would be that one meme where a bear chases somebody down a hallway

[@Kira-pv4xq]

So basically a nextbot with a 3d model.
