Any number of ‘scan points’ can be specified by parenting transforms under the main scan point object of that waypoint.<\/p>\n

The scanning movement is handled by the RobotMovementClass, not the RobotGameClass, though I’m still feeling it out whether that’s the best solution.<\/p>\n

On another note, I’ve modified the Game Pause\/Unpause behaviour by using SendMessage to NavMeshAgents instead of using if() conditions on their Update() callback; this is mainly because NavMeshAgent functions like Resume() are unintentionally getting called when they’re supposed to sit still!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
