NavMeshObstacleNamespace: UnityEngine
Parent class: Behaviour
Description

An obstacle for NavMeshAgents to avoid.

A NavMeshObstacle is cylindrical in shape and can move around the surface of the NavMesh with a specified velocity. By default, the obstacle will only affect the agent's avoidance behaviour rather than the pathfinding. This means that the agent will ignore the obstacle when plotting a path but will sidestep around it while moving along the path. If carving is enabled, the obstacle will create a temporary "hole" in the NavMesh. The hole will be recognised by the pathfinding, so paths will be plotted to avoid the obstacle. This means that if, say, an obstacle blocks a narrow gap, the pathfinding will seek an alternative route to the target. Without carving, the agent will head for the gap but won't be able to pass until the obstacle is clear.

Variables
carving Should this obstacle make a cut-out in the navmesh.
carvingMoveThreshold Threshold distance for updating a moving carved hole (when carving is enabled).
height Height of the obstacle's cylinder shape.
radius Radius of the obstacle's cylinder shape.
velocity Velocity at which the obstacle moves around the NavMesh.

Functions
BroadcastMessage Calls the method named methodName on every MonoBehaviour in this game object or any of its children.
CompareTag Is this game object tagged with tag?
GetComponent Returns the component of Type type if the game object has one attached, null if it doesn't.
GetComponentInChildren Returns the component of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children using depth first search.
GetComponents Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject.
GetComponentsInChildren Returns all components of Type type in the GameObject or any of its children.

GetInstanceID Returns the instance id of the object.
ToString Returns the name of the game object.
Static Functions
Destroy Removes a gameobject, component or asset.
DestroyImmediate Destroys the object obj immediately. You are strongly recommended to use Destroy instead.
DontDestroyOnLoad Makes the object target not be destroyed automatically when loading a new scene.
FindObjectOfType Returns the first active loaded object of Type type.
FindObjectsOfType Returns a list of all active loaded objects of Type type.
Instantiate Clones the object original and returns the clone.
Operators
bool Does the object exist?
operator != Compares if two objects refer to a different object.
operator == Compares if two objects refer to the same.
