A Couple's Navigation Help Please

Unity Engine

I have a couple of navigation questions that I need help in.

  1. I have a battleground. There is an interactable object, Jump Pad, that is not an obstacle (marked as ‘Walkable’) but how do I go about getting my AI to avoid going there? I’d like to only make my AI move to the Jump Pad and interact with it in certain situations.

  2. Does anyone have any advice on some AI logic for games like Brawl Stars? I know how to make AI for RPG games. Simple alert/attack range check and then changing the AI states. But in this case, it’s a fast paced 3v3 game on a small map. Any idea?

Anybody can help?

Put your Jump Pad on a separate NavMesh layer and set them to a higher cost (this way the NavAgent will avoid the Jump Pad in most cases. You can also manipulate the cost of all the layers for each agent.

If it avoids, can I still tell my AI to move to it using a random timer to interact with it?

Sure, you can either change the layer cost of the agent for the Jump Pa or set destination directly to the jump pad.

What about a Nav mesh obstacle? https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-NavMeshObstacle.html
