Pathfinding help

[tender cove]

So I'm doing an Pathfinding ai
And its the Dijkstra Method

I have most of the things but I have one problem

So I made every node in my room and I want it to run while it follows a player

So my problem here is:

So there is nodes in every Corner and every Gap how do I make it choose the path so it skips the gap so it can go to the corner while it follows the player

[tender cove]

^^

[smoky gull]

Have a different list of nodes when chasing the player

[tender cove]

But what abt the gap part

[smoky gull]

Don't include the node in the gaps

[tender cove]

Why?

[smoky gull]

U said u want to skip the gaps

Then why have the gaps

[tender cove]

Yes but what if the player runs in the gaps

That's why I still need em

[smoky gull]

Do u want to stop the ai from taking a shortcut?

[tender cove]

Huh?

[smoky gull]

What do u need exactly I'm confused

[tender cove]

So every played ignited bonnie?

[smoky gull]

Ya

[tender cove]

And let's say the ai is far behind but in the same hall way

And he follows and he is choosing the best shortcut to you

But sometimes I don't him go through the gap if he is near the player

[smoky gull]

So u don't want the ai to take a shortcut but chase the player while in line of sight?

[tender cove]

No u know what forget that question

Wait

So u ever seen the rclman you tubers Follow system?

Ok

I have that

But I want it to follow the player while it runs to the nodes that are corners or gaps

[smoky gull]

So u are making pathfinding ai but not to find the quickest path but to stop wall collision

[tender cove]

No Im making an Pathfinding ai and I thought maybe I could just put it together with rclman system I made

Because like I said I'm trying to make a ignited bonnie similar ai

[smoky gull]

So from what I understand u want to path using a pathfinding algorithm until ur ai can see the player then the ai will move using rcl man
Ai

Or dym that u want to move the ai to the nodes using rcl man's trick

[tender cove]

No so the system he has follows the player

And I only created something that follows the player with no roles or get closest

I want that system somehow work while the pathfinding system runs with it

Because from what I seen from the ignited bonnie game I think that's how it supposed to kinda work

[smoky gull]

I think Bonnie's ai works like this

• if the ai can't see a player it paths to a random node

• if the AI CAN SEE then it finds the node the player is in then paths to in

• there's a clock every 5 seconds it checks if the AI can see the Player if it can see then it continues patching if not it paths to a random node

[tender cove]

What do you mean by when the player is IN the Node

Like nearest to that node?

Or??

[smoky gull]

It finds the closest node to the player

[tender cove]

And when the ai is very near him

[tender cove]

And they are between 2 nodes and the player tries to juke him by Going left or right in that hallway

How do I make it follow THE player

[smoky gull]

If player node = AI node then move withe rcl man method

[tender cove]

I don't get it

[smoky gull]

Let's say the player is near node 1
And the AI reached Node 1
Then Move Towards the player using
The rcl man method

[tender cove]

Ight im getting it

[tender cove]

Thx bruh u saved ma ass

[smoky gull]

Ur welcome I'm also making a FNAF game

[tender cove]

Oh Fr? What kind of fnaf game?

[smoky gull]

FNAF 1 freeroam

[tender cove]

So kinda like TJOC

[smoky gull]

Ya but with the classic og cast

[tender cove]

Need good models?

That u could make btw

[smoky gull]

I think I'll figure that out on my own but I'll tell if I need

[tender cove]

Wait

[smoky gull]

Also mark the thread with a tag of "answered"

[tender cove]

That's how I made my Model

Want the Outline method?

[smoky gull]

Hell yah

[tender cove]

Ight lemme look for the room rq

[tender cove]

Wait u have a pc?

[smoky gull]

No😔

[tender cove]

Damn...

Well I got a guy he has very good animatronic inventions

Want to use his?

[smoky gull]

I'll trace his
