Nextbot Navmesh - gm_vault

A moderately handcrafted navmesh for subterrain

to test the navmesh try using it with the drgbase nextbot mod: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1560118657 or these advanced player nextbots: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2148063174


Q/A

-Nav meshes are groups of squares placed across the map that contain information that nexbots use to see the map
Example #1 using nav_edit 1 on gm_liminal_gallery_2


Example #2 using nav_edit 1 on gm_liminal_gallery_2


Example #3 using nav_edit 1 on gm_fortbaxter

in order for any and all nextbots to work, you actually need to have a navmesh; you can create one by putting nav_generate into your console on any map, but this may take several minutes or even sometimes hours to fully generate depending on the size and complexity of the map.



-more advanced/ accurate mesh, meaning better navigation for nextbots; they're less likely to get stuck; but still possible :( .

-more optimized mesh than nav_generate.

-guess who support!

-increases the amount of hiding spots and encounter points, this improves nextbots like Gargitron.

-accommodation for nextbots separate from the 'png chasers', e.g 'crouching attribute' nodes and parkour (see the first gif)

-nav meshes in places where the nav_generate command fails to create them such as on the stairs and on high areas such as the metal and wood platforms.

-downloading this will save the nav mesh, instead of having to recreate it every time you load a new game (nav_save for anyone who wants to save a nav_generated nav mesh, this saves the nav file to the garrysmod maps folder), and it takes less time to download this than to generate a new mesh.

-even scarier and more effective nextbots.



-all ladders on this map lack a navmesh, this is because of the way the map creator implemented them; as such the navmesh is unable to recognize them as ladders.


The white cross hair should turn green, indicating it recognizes a ladder; it does not and therefore can't create a ladder node.

And incase you like the navmesh:
