Template:LSL Constant/Pathfinding Character

Description

Constant: integer TRAVERSAL_TYPE = 7;

The integer constant TRAVERSAL_TYPE has the value 7

Used in combination with one of the traversal type flags. The default is TRAVERSAL_TYPE_SLOW, other options are TRAVERSAL_TYPE_FAST and TRAVERSAL_TYPE_NONE.

Option Default Range / Values Description
CHARACTER_DESIRED_SPEED 1 6 [0.2, 40.0] Speed of pursuit in meters per second.
CHARACTER_RADIUS 2 [0.125, 5.0] Set collision capsule radius.
CHARACTER_LENGTH 3 (0.0, 10.0] Set collision capsule length

If the value is less than twice the radius plus 0.1m, it will be set to twice the radius plus 0.1m.

CHARACTER_ORIENTATION 4 VERTICAL VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL Set the character orientation.
TRAVERSAL_TYPE 7 TRAVERSAL_TYPE_SLOW TRAVERSAL_TYPE_FAST, TRAVERSAL_TYPE_SLOW, TRAVERSAL_TYPE_NONE Controls the speed at which characters moves on terrain that is less than 100% walkable will move faster (e.g., a cat crossing a street) or slower (e.g., a car driving in a swamp).

To use _FAST or _SLOW, you must specify a CHARACTER_TYPE.

CHARACTER_TYPE 6 CHARACTER_TYPE_NONE CHARACTER_TYPE_A, CHARACTER_TYPE_B, CHARACTER_TYPE_C, CHARACTER_TYPE_D, CHARACTER_TYPE_NONE Specifies which walkability coefficient will be used by this character.
CHARACTER_AVOIDANCE_MODE 5 AVOID_CHARACTERS | AVOID_DYNAMIC_OBSTACLES Combinable Flags: AVOID_CHARACTERS, AVOID_DYNAMIC_OBSTACLES, AVOID_NONE Allows you to specify that a character should not try to avoid other characters, should not try to avoid dynamic obstacles (relatively fast moving objects and avatars), or both. This is framed in the positive sense ([CHARACTER_AVOIDANCE_MODE, AVOID_CHARACTERS] would create a character that avoided other characters but not agents or moving vehicles). Setting this parameter to AVOID_NONE causes the character to not avoid either category.
CHARACTER_MAX_ACCEL 8 20 [0.5, 40.0] The character's maximum acceleration rate.
CHARACTER_MAX_DECEL 9 30 [0.5, 60.0] The character's maximum deceleration rate.
CHARACTER_DESIRED_TURN_SPEED 12 6 [0.02, 40.0] The character's maximum speed while turning--note that this is only loosely enforced (i.e., a character may turn at higher speeds under certain conditions)
CHARACTER_MAX_TURN_RADIUS 10 1.25 [0.1, 10.0] The character's turn radius when traveling at CHARACTER_DESIRED_TURN_SPEED
CHARACTER_MAX_SPEED 13 20 [1, 40.0] The character's maximum speed. Affects speed when avoiding dynamic obstacles and when traversing low-walkability objects in TRAVERSAL_TYPE_FAST mode.
CHARACTER_ACCOUNT_FOR_SKIPPED_FRAMES 14 TRUE TRUE or FALSE TRUE matches pre-existing behavior. If set to FALSE, character will not attempt to catch up on lost time when pathfinding performance is low, potentially providing more reliable movement (albeit while potentially appearing to be more stuttery).
CHARACTER_STAY_WITHIN_PARCEL 15 Depends* TRUE or FALSE FALSE matches traditional behavior. If set to TRUE, treat the parcel boundaries as one-way obstacles (will re-enter but can't leave on it's own).
