    Make sure that your "Find path" action is only triggered once, and not on every tick. You can add "Browser -> Log" debug message, then in preview press F12 and open browser console, you should see this message appear once.

    Maybe there is something else preventing the Adventurer from moving. Does it have any other movement behaviors, like MoveTo, Physics etc.? Check if pathfinding speed is set in behavior properties.

    If nothing helps, please share your project file, as I don't see any problems on your screenshots.

    I couldn't figure out how to setup the browser log debug (made the event and log but what am I suppose to enter for the message?) so I just set it so the find path only triggers every x seconds but that didn't seem to help.

    There is no other movement triggers on the Adventurer object other than pathfinder

    my project file is: dropbox.com/s/fylp04pa2mims8k/pathfinding_help.c3p

    thanks

    Sorry, it seems my debugging screenshot was cut off, heres the full pathfinding info

    Hi, I'm having some real troubles with the pathfinder behavior here. The path finding part seems to be working perfectly fine:

    The green square is a solid object and the red arrows (taken from tutorial to mark path) has properly created a path towards the target (based off turret behavior and nearest target).

    however when it actually starts moving (it also doesn't move immediately it takes it like 3 seconds even though the path has already been found) it completely ignores it and runs straight and then gets stuck inside the green square solid.

    Not to mention, depending on where you put the object with pathfinder it won't even move at all.

    (pathfinder object is just stuck there)

    (debug shows the path is found and object is moving BUT speed is 0, trying to change it does not work at all and trying to add a change speed (e.g 200) to the event for when path found --> follow path doesn't do anything at all)

    Here is the pathfinder code im using

    The catchall to make units move

    The function to determine what the path target is

    and lastly the function for setting up the objects with pathfinder (not sure if this one is relevant)

  • If these are top-level events, then "For each DummyAttack" is triggered on every tick, but you have another condition "Every DummyAttack.attackSpeed seconds".. Not only this is not good for performance, but I can't imagine how these two conditions work together, especially if different instances have different attackSpeed values.

    Use Timer behavior instead. When DummyAttack is spawned, start its Timer. In "On timer" event do "For each DummyAttack", pick Enemy, subtract from health.

    Thank you very much, this was exactly it.

  • I've just updated the site with some changes and tweaked our Azure settings which should improve performance after investigation. We've had sporadic outages for a little while now, and have been spending a lot of time trying to hunt down the cause and I do believe it's just about solved now.

    It is definitely a lot faster and more responsive now thanks!

  • Hi, I'm not sure why this is happening but I've been playing with the debug mode and whenever the "Adventurer" object triggers for overlapping it will properly spawn the "dummyAttack" object for each occurrence, however the for each trigger for "dummyAttack" does not properly subtract damage from the hp instance variable of the "Enemy" object. I've checked with debugging there is indeed multiple instances of the "dummyAttack" and the target UID's on them are also properly mapped but the trigger subtracts HP from 1 Enemy at a time.

    I've been racking my brain over this and can't figure it out so if someone has some insight on this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Is anyone else encountering this issue? Pages either take 5 minutes to load or they just never load at all, what's going on?
