Navigation Mesh Agent Radius Tutorial

In this video I adjust the agent radius for the navigation mesh in order to tighten the borders around the environment so that our AI can navigate more effectively.

Oh my god, a tutorial that wasnt made in the past few months that actually works on the latest build??? YOU ROCK!

[@GordonVart]

thanks!

[@Abhishekchhetri6774]

@@GordonVart how about checking true can ever effect navigation for the meshes that also get rid of the problem.

[@moonboy8067]

maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, 10 year old bug and this 3 year old video saved my ass! thank you so much!!!

[@GordonVart]

lol

[@hhart6266]

Excellent tutorial - thanks!

[@sebastianvelasco3825]

Thank you works perfect in UE 5.1

[@kabelstekker]

Thank you! This is the first solution that worked for me after hours of searching online. I find it strange that there is no option in the NavModiferVolume to force a path. Hopefully they add it in the future.

[@Noobsed]

Thank you very much sir, you are a legend

[@thebilgekhan]

Thanks a lot, pretty useful.

[@paulareb2074]

Thank you so so so so soooooo much. That actually worked perfectly!

[@allashama]

Thanks dude! even in 2022 it's still effective. Now my AI can open doors lol. before that, it blocked in the door fance like if there was an invisible wall.

[@ShalowRecord]

Thank you, this helped a lot. It was driving me crazy why it wouldn't save when i was adjusting the numbers on the Recast. Thanks again

[@GordonVart]

Thank you. I'm glad that it helped you out. Good luck with your effort!

THANK YOU!!!!!

[@DRYBREAD_games]

yepp helpful! even in 5.4

[@vertex_pixel]

In UE5 VR Template if you change the ground or build out your scene with custom meshes this step is a must!!!!! the Recastnavmesh in the outliner is completely broken delete the bi**h! and work with the one in the project settings like he shows it here. Thank you a tone for this!

Imagine if Unreal left a bug in their Engine that forces you to use a workaround......for over 7 fking years!!!!

[@everyday_migrants]

still the same

[@unrealdevop]

@@everyday_migrantsYeah the nav system and the perception system just seem so janky and difficult to work with. I'm surprised after all this time they haven't found some way to improve them and make them more user friendly and intuitive. The perception system isn't too bad but it's not as intuitive as I first imagined it would be.

[@korypeters2059]

Thank god for youtube

[@cheemayt1530]

You are Legend, You know that?

[@moritztorsiep5161]

Good video.
But I just found another way to do so, wich is far easier than yours.
You just have to change the cell size in the RecastNavMesh to adjust the Navmesh instead (I changed it to about 10 and it works great).
After that you can adjust the Agent Radius for finetuning (30 seems about right to me)
Might help someone reading this.
Keep up the work and have a nice day :)

[@Dicerox1]

Doing that will increase the time it takes to generate the navigation which may be significant in an open world environment where you generate it dynamically. I'd avoid that if there are other options.

[@moritztorsiep5161]

@@Dicerox1 Ahhh... thanks. Wasn't thniking about that one.

[@Ren-gr1me]

hellooo!!! amazing tutorial, though I am using 4.26 and there is no "default agent name slot" in my nav mesh BP... any thoughts as to where it could be?? ((theres not even a "world" tab there))

[@Ren-gr1me]

i was in my details panel and not world settings..... whoops!! :)

[@GordonVart]

open world settings window under Windows menu

[@quantumneuralnetworking4765]

any idea on how to get the nav mesh lower on surfaces ? my character seems to think the surface is floating above the object, is it because the nav mesh also floats above the objects?
ie your cubes

[@GordonVart]

I suspect it's not actually the navmesh that is the problem. I think your character is probably sitting too high within the actor. if you just place the character in the world does it appear to float above the ground? If so it has nothing to do with the navmesh itself.

[@Jack66148]

How to assign different bots to diferent agents o navmeshes, i mean skinny zombys come here and fat zombys go around and dont try to come where skinny go?

[@GordonVart]

super busy, can't dig into now. gl

[@alexruas6235]

0:12 ''i found i issue'' no shit right? Ue navigation is a issue on its own.

[@GordonVart]

lol

[@Aaron628318]

This is so unintuitive it's ridiculous. The fact that there are other settings lying around just to throw you off the scent. Jeez. Thanks though!
