Unigine::PathRoute Class

Header: #include <UniginePathFinding.h>

This class calculates the shortest 2D or 3D route around the obstacles within connected navigation areas and sets the size and velocity of the point moving along this route.

  • In case of 2D route, a point moves in the lower plane of the navigation area. The Z coordinate is not taken into account when calculating the 2D route. The height and radius values set for the point via the setHeight() and setRadius() functions are used to check whether the navigation area can take part in pathfinding: if the height or radius set for the point is greater than the size of the navigation area, such navigation area will be discarded. If the height difference between the connected areas exceeds the maximum height, the navigation area is also discarded from calculations.
  • In case of 3D route (available only for navigation sectors), a point moves in 3 dimensions. The radius set for the point via the setRadius() function is used to check whether the navigation sector can take part in pathfinding: if the radius set for the point is greater than the size of the navigation sector, it will be discarded. Also the point cannot rise up higher than the maximum height set for the navigation sector.

Functions of the PathRoute class enable to ignore the specified navigation areas and obstacles. Also the maximum time acceptable to get to the destination point and the maximum danger factor can be limited as well.

Notice
To choose between navigation areas, A*  algorithm is used.

Warning
  • This feature is experimental and not recommended for production use.
  • There is no connection between functions of the PathRoute class and functions of the Path class.
