[LE] Copy / paste Navmesh...

[Kevek53215]

So i have little script that is building Dungeons by using pre-builded structures, they have connect points and Script is pretty simple

He just copy / paste Structures and use Connect Points to place them together building random looking dungon

However... i can't move Navhesh...

First i was thinking " Naaa... Navmesh is probably not that very important.. game will handle that "

But ye... i simply forgot... its Skyrim... so i do need to copy navmesh...

I was searching some DLLs but i can't find anything that can let me edit Navmesh

What i need:

1) Copy Paste Pre-builded Navmesh to new location

2) Connect near Navmeshes together

- It don't have to be quick solution... but i pref to keep Dungeon Generating Time under 3 minutes...

but if there is wroking solution that will take little longer and will work... i can live with longer generating time...

I can always generate new Dungeon while Player is still in other Dungeon...

so like... have two Dungeons, one as Buffer one as Active...

But i need way to copy / paste Navmesh... or somehow make NPCs to ignore missing Navmesh???????????????????

Could you navmesh areas as though there were no walls at all just a large empty plane or several planes connected by ramps and then when you place a wall also place a navecut cube over the wall to prevent the npc from trying to walk though it? Kind of clunky but might work. Make a warehouse area with wall/navcut block combos for easier copy pasting.

I created a random dungeon years ago and ran into this same problem. After working with it for a bit I found placing a large flat preset pre-navmesh plain worked well enough. Once that was set up I removed the object plain leaving just the navmesh. I then made the code randomly created the dungeon level. Each level had it's own pre-navmesh plain. Also did some steps (for each side) and navmshed them out fully. Basically everything was done as far a navmeshing leaving a huge area in the middle to be filled randomly with 8 levels.

Outcome ... At times the mobs would try to walk through a wall (and sometimes make it). I made it so their attack/notice you distance was closer and that helped. I was happy with what I got done but it did limit me to a flat levels. Mine was more of a maze also.
