Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ GraphNode()

GraphNode ( AstarPath astar )

protected

Constructor for a graph node.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AddConnection()

abstract void AddConnection	(	GraphNode	node,
		uint	cost
	)

pure virtual

Implemented in MeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ ClearConnections()

abstract void ClearConnections ( bool alsoReverse )

pure virtual

Remove all connections from this node.

Parameters

alsoReverse if true, neighbours will be requested to remove connections to this node.

Implemented in LevelGridNode, MeshNode, GridNodeBase, GridNode, and PointNode.

◆ ContainsConnection()

virtual bool ContainsConnection ( GraphNode node )

virtual

Checks if this node has a connection to the specified node.

Reimplemented in MeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ DeserializeNode()

virtual void DeserializeNode ( GraphSerializationContext ctx )

virtual

Reimplemented in LevelGridNode, GridNode, TriangleMeshNode, and PointNode.

◆ DeserializeReferences()

virtual void DeserializeReferences ( GraphSerializationContext ctx )

virtual

Used to deserialize references to other nodes e.g connections.

Use the GraphSerializationContext.GetNodeIdentifier and GraphSerializationContext.GetNodeFromIdentifier methods for serialization and deserialization respectively.

Nodes must override this method and serialize their connections. Graph generators do not need to call this method, it will be called automatically on all nodes at the correct time by the serializer.

Reimplemented in MeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ Destroy()

void Destroy ( )

package

Destroys the node.

Cleans up any temporary pathfinding data used for this node. The graph is responsible for calling this method on nodes when they are destroyed, including when the whole graph is destoyed. Otherwise memory leaks might present themselves.

Once called the Destroyed property will return true and subsequent calls to this method will not do anything.

Note: Assumes the current active AstarPath instance is the same one that created this node.

Warning: Should only be called by graph classes on their own nodes

◆ FloodFill()

virtual void FloodFill	(	Stack< GraphNode >	stack,
		uint	region
	)

virtual

Reimplemented in LevelGridNode, MeshNode, and GridNode.

◆ GetConnections()

abstract void GetConnections ( System.Action< GraphNode > action )

pure virtual

Calls the delegate with all connections from this node.

        node.GetConnections(connectedTo => {
            Debug.DrawLine((Vector3)node.position, (Vector3)connectedTo.position, Color.red);
        });

You can add all connected nodes to a list like this

var connections = new List<GraphNode>();

node.GetConnections(connections.Add);

Implemented in LevelGridNode, MeshNode, GridNodeBase, GridNode, and PointNode.

◆ GetGizmoHashCode()

virtual int GetGizmoHashCode ( )

virtual

Hash code used for checking if the gizmos need to be updated.

Will change when the gizmos for the node might change.

Reimplemented in LevelGridNode, MeshNode, PointNode, and GridNodeBase.

◆ GetPortal()

virtual bool GetPortal	(	GraphNode	other,
		List< Vector3 >	left,
		List< Vector3 >	right,
		bool	backwards
	)

virtual

Add a portal from this node to the specified node.

This function should add a portal to the left and right lists which is connecting the two nodes (this and other).

Parameters

other	The node which is on the other side of the portal (strictly speaking it does not actually have to be on the other side of the portal though).
left	List of portal points on the left side of the funnel
right	List of portal points on the right side of the funnel
backwards	If this is true, the call was made on a node with the other node as the node before this one in the path. In this case you may choose to do nothing since a similar call will be made to the other node with this node referenced as other (but then with backwards = true). You do not have to care about switching the left and right lists, that is done for you already.

Returns: True if the call was deemed successful. False if some unknown case was encountered and no portal could be added. If both calls to node1.GetPortal (node2,...) and node2.GetPortal (node1,...) return false, the funnel modifier will fall back to adding to the path the positions of the node.

The default implementation simply returns false.

This function may add more than one portal if necessary.

Reimplemented in LevelGridNode, GridNode, and NodeLink3Node.

◆ Open()

abstract void Open	(	Path	path,
		PathNode	pathNode,
		PathHandler	handler
	)

pure virtual

Open the node.

Implemented in LevelGridNode, GridNode, TriangleMeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ RandomPointOnSurface()

virtual Vector3 RandomPointOnSurface ( )

virtual

A random point on the surface of the node.

For point nodes and other nodes which do not have a surface, this will always return the position of the node.

Reimplemented in TriangleMeshNode, and GridNodeBase.

◆ RecalculateConnectionCosts()

virtual void RecalculateConnectionCosts ( )

virtual

Recalculates all connection costs from this node.

Depending on the node type, this may or may not be supported. Nothing will be done if the operation is not supported

Todo:: Use interface?

◆ RemoveConnection()

abstract void RemoveConnection ( GraphNode node )

pure virtual

Implemented in MeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ SerializeNode()

virtual void SerializeNode ( GraphSerializationContext ctx )

virtual

Reimplemented in LevelGridNode, GridNode, TriangleMeshNode, and PointNode.

◆ SerializeReferences()

virtual void SerializeReferences ( GraphSerializationContext ctx )

virtual

Used to serialize references to other nodes e.g connections.

Use the GraphSerializationContext.GetNodeIdentifier and GraphSerializationContext.GetNodeFromIdentifier methods for serialization and deserialization respectively.

Nodes must override this method and serialize their connections. Graph generators do not need to call this method, it will be called automatically on all nodes at the correct time by the serializer.

Reimplemented in MeshNode, GridNodeBase, and PointNode.

◆ SurfaceArea()

virtual float SurfaceArea ( )

virtual

The surface area of the node in square world units.

◆ Area

uint Area

getset

Connected component that contains the node.

This is visualized in the scene view as differently colored nodes (if the graph coloring mode is set to 'Areas'). Each area represents a set of nodes such that there is no valid path between nodes of different colors.
