Generates a grid of nodes. More...
Generates a grid of nodes.
The GridGraph does exactly what the name implies, generates nodes in a grid pattern.
Grid graphs suit well to when you already have a grid based world. Features:
The The Snap Size button snaps the internal size of the graph to exactly contain the current number of nodes, i.e not contain 100.3 nodes but exactly 100 nodes.
This will make the "center" coordinate more accurate.
Updating the graph during runtime
Any graph which implements the IUpdatableGraph interface can be updated during runtime.
For grid graphs this is a great feature since you can update only a small part of the grid without causing any lag like a complete rescan would.
If you for example just have instantiated a sphere obstacle in the scene and you want to update the grid where that sphere was instantiated, you can do this:
Where ob is the obstacle you just instantiated (a GameObject).
As you can see, the UpdateGraphs function takes a Bounds parameter and it will send an update call to all updateable graphs.
A grid graph will update that area and a small margin around it equal to collision testing diameter/2
Hexagon graphs
The graph can be configured to work like a hexagon graph with some simple settings. Since 4.1.x the grid graph has a 'Shape' dropdown. If you set it to 'Hexagonal' the graph will behave as a hexagon graph. Often you may want to rotate the graph +45 or -45 degrees.
Note however that the snapping to the closest node is not exactly as you would expect in a real hexagon graph, but it is close enough that you will likely not notice.
Configure using code
Tree colliders
It seems that Unity will only generate tree colliders at runtime when the game is started. For this reason, the grid graph will not pick up tree colliders when outside of play mode but it will pick them up once the game starts. If it still does not pick them up make sure that the trees actually have colliders attached to them and that the tree prefabs are in the correct layer (the layer should be included in the 'Collision Testing' mask).

static |
Calculates the grid connections for a single node.
|
virtual |
Calculates the grid connections for a single node.
Convenience function, it's slightly faster to use CalculateConnections(int,int) but that will only show when calculating for a large number of nodes. This function will also work for both grid graphs and layered grid graphs.
Reimplemented in LayerGridGraph.
|
virtual |
Calculates the grid connections for a single node.
|
virtual |
Calculates the grid connections for a single node.
Note that to ensure that connections are completely up to date after updating a node you have to calculate the connections for both the changed node and its neighbours.
In a layered grid graph, this will recalculate the connections for all nodes in the (x,z) cell (it may have multiple layers of nodes).
Reimplemented in LayerGridGraph.
void CalculateConnectionsForCellAndNeighbours | ( | int | x, |
int | z | ||
) |
Calculates the grid connections for a cell as well as its neighbours.
This is a useful utility function if you want to modify the walkability of a single node in the graph.
|
private |
Calculates the width/depth of the graph from unclampedSize and nodeSize.
The node size may be changed due to constraints that the width/depth is not allowed to be larger than 1024 (artificial limit).
GraphTransform CalculateTransform | ( | ) |
Returns a new transform which transforms graph space to world space.
Does not update the transform field.
|
private |
Implements IUpdatableGraph.
bool CheckConnection | ( | GridNode | node, |
int | dir | ||
) |
Returns if node is connected to it's neighbour in the specified direction.
This will also return true if neighbours = NumNeighbours.Four, the direction is diagonal and one can move through one of the adjacent nodes to the targeted node.
|
protected |
Clips a line segment in graph space to the graph bounds.
That is (0,0,0) is the bottom left corner of the graph and (width,0,depth) is the top right corner. The first node is placed at (0.5,y,0.5). One unit distance is the same as nodeSize.
Returns false if the line segment does not intersect the graph at all.
|
virtual |
Number of nodes in the graph.
Note that this is, unless the graph type has overriden it, an O(n) operation.
This is an O(1) operation for grid graphs and point graphs. For layered grid graphs it is an O(n) operation.

Also takes into account if the nodes are walkable.
This method may be overriden if you want to customize what connections are valid. It must however hold that IsValidConnection(a,b) == IsValidConnection(b,a).
This is used for calculating the connections when the graph is scanned or updated.
bool Linecast | ( | Vector3 | from, |

void SetDimensions | ( | int | width, |

Updates unclampedSize from width, depth and nodeSize values.
Also generates a new matrix .
You should use this method instead of setting the width and depth fields as the grid dimensions are not defined by the width and depth variables but by the unclampedSize and center variables.

The cost for a diagonal movement between two adjacent nodes is RoundToInt (nodeSize * Sqrt (2) * Int3.Precision)
bool SnappedLinecast | ( | Vector3 | from, |
Vector3 | to, | ||
GraphNode | hint, | ||
out GraphHitInfo | hit | ||
) |
Returns if there is an obstacle between from and to on the graph.
[in] | from | Point to linecast from. |
[in] | to | Point to linecast to. |
[out] | hit | Contains info on what was hit, see GraphHitInfo. |
[in] | hint | This parameter is deprecated. It will be ignored. |
This function is different from the other Linecast functions since it snaps the start and end positions to the centers of the closest nodes on the graph. This is not the same as Physics.Linecast, this function traverses the graph and looks for collisions.
|
private |
Internal function to update an area of the graph.
Implements IUpdatableGraph.
|
private |
May be called on the Unity thread before starting the update.
Implements IUpdatableGraph.
|
private |
May be called on the Unity thread after executing the update.
Implements IUpdatableGraph.
|
virtual |
Updates position, walkability and penalty for the node.
Assumes that collision.Initialize (...) has been called before this function
void UpdateSizeFromWidthDepth | ( | ) |
Updates unclampedSize from width, depth and nodeSize values.
void UpdateTransform | ( | ) |
Updates the transform field which transforms graph space to world space.
In graph space all nodes are laid out in the XZ plane with the first node having a corner in the origin. One unit in graph space is one node so the first node in the graph is at (0.5,0) the second one at (1.5,0) etc.
This takes the current values of the parameters such as position and rotation into account. The transform that was used the last time the graph was scanned is stored in the transform field.
The transform field is calculated using this method when the graph is scanned. The width, depth variables are also updated based on the unclampedSize field.
float aspectRatio = 1F |
Scaling of the graph along the X axis.
This should be used if you want different scales on the X and Y axis of the grid
Vector3 center |
Center point of the grid.
GraphCollision collision |
Settings on how to check for walkability and height.
bool cutCorners = true |
If disabled, will not cut corners on obstacles.
If connections is Eight, obstacle corners might be cut by a connection, setting this to false disables that.
int depth |
Depth (height) of the grid in nodes.
int erodeIterations |
Erosion of the graph.
The graph can be eroded after calculation. This means a margin is put around unwalkable nodes or other unwalkable connections. It is really good if your graph contains ledges where the nodes without erosion are walkable too close to the edge.
Below is an image showing a graph with erode iterations 0, 1 and 2
int erosionFirstTag = 1 |
Tag to start from when using tags for erosion.
bool erosionUseTags |
Use tags instead of walkability for erosion.
Tags will be used for erosion instead of marking nodes as unwalkable. The nodes will be marked with tags in an increasing order starting with the tag erosionFirstTag. Debug with the Tags mode to see the effect. With this enabled you can in effect set how close different AIs are allowed to get to walls using the Valid Tags field on the Seeker component.
const int getNearestForceOverlap = 2 |
In GetNearestForce, determines how far to search after a valid node has been found.
|
staticpackage |
Which neighbours are going to be used when neighbours=6.
InspectorGridMode inspectorGridMode = InspectorGridMode.Grid |
Determines the layout of the grid graph inspector in the Unity Editor.
This field is only used in the editor, it has no effect on the rest of the game whatsoever.
float isometricAngle |
Angle to use for the isometric projection.
If you are making a 2D isometric game, you may want to use this parameter to adjust the layout of the graph to match your game. This will essentially scale the graph along one of its diagonals to produce something like this:
A perspective view of an isometric graph.
A top down view of an isometric graph. Note that the graph is entirely 2D, there is no perspective in this image.
Usually the angle that you want to use is either 30 degrees (alternatively 90-30 = 60 degrees) or atan(1/sqrt(2)) which is approximately 35.264 degrees (alternatively 90 - 35.264 = 54.736 degrees). You might also want to rotate the graph plus or minus 45 degrees around the Y axis to get the oritientation required for your game.
You can read more about it on the wikipedia page linked below.
float maxClimb = 0.4F |
The max position difference between two nodes to enable a connection.
Set to 0 to ignore the value.
float maxSlope = 90 |
The max slope in degrees for a node to be walkable.
readonly uint [] neighbourCosts = new uint[8] |
Costs to neighbour nodes.
readonly int [] neighbourOffsets = new int[8] |
Index offset to get neighbour nodes.
Added to a node's index to get a neighbour node index.
NumNeighbours neighbours = NumNeighbours.Eight |
Number of neighbours for each node.
Either four, six, eight connections per node.
Six connections is primarily for emulating hexagon graphs.
readonly int [] neighbourXOffsets = new int[8] |
Offsets in the X direction for neighbour nodes.
Only 1, 0 or -1
readonly int [] neighbourZOffsets = new int[8] |
Offsets in the Z direction for neighbour nodes.
Only 1, 0 or -1
GridNode [] nodes |
All nodes in this graph.
Nodes are laid out row by row.
The first node has grid coordinates X=0, Z=0, the second one X=1, Z=0
the last one has grid coordinates X=width-1, Z=depth-1.
float nodeSize = 1 |
Size of one node in world units.
bool penaltyAngle |
float penaltyAngleFactor = 100F |
How much penalty is applied depending on the slope of the terrain.
At a 90 degree slope (not that exactly 90 degree slopes can occur, but almost 90 degree), this penalty is applied. At a 45 degree slope, half of this is applied and so on. Note that you may require very large values, a value of 1000 is equivalent to the cost of moving 1 world unit.
float penaltyAnglePower = 1 |
How much extra to penalize very steep angles.
bool penaltyPosition |
Use position (y-coordinate) to calculate penalty.
float penaltyPositionFactor = 1F |
Scale factor for penalty when calculating from position.
float penaltyPositionOffset |
Offset for the position when calculating penalty.
Vector3 rotation |
Rotation of the grid in degrees.
bool showMeshOutline = true |
Show an outline of the grid nodes in the Unity Editor.
bool showMeshSurface = true |
Show the surface of the graph.
Each node will be drawn as a square (unless e.g hexagon graph mode has been enabled).
bool showNodeConnections |
Show the connections between the grid nodes in the Unity Editor.
TextureData textureData = new TextureData() |
Holds settings for using a texture as source for a grid graph.
Texure data can be used for fine grained control over how the graph will look. It can be used for positioning, penalty and walkability control.
Below is a screenshot of a grid graph with a penalty map applied. It has the effect of the AI taking the longer path along the green (low penalty) areas.
Vector2 unclampedSize |
Size of the grid.
Might be negative or smaller than nodeSize
bool uniformEdgeCosts |
If true, all edge costs will be set to the same value.
If false, diagonals will cost more. This is useful for a hexagon graph where the diagonals are actually the same length as the normal edges (since the graph has been skewed)
bool useJumpPointSearch |
Use jump point search to speed up pathfinding.
Jump point search can improve pathfinding performance significantly by making use of some assumptions of the graph. More specifically it assumes a grid graph with no penalties.
int width |
Width of the grid in nodes.
|
getset |
|
get |
Number of layers in the graph.
For grid graphs this is always 1, for layered grid graphs it can be higher. The nodes array has the size width*depth*layerCount.
|
getprotected set |
|
getprivate set |
Determines how the graph transforms graph space to world space.
|
get |
This is placed here so generators inheriting from this one can override it and set it to false.
If it is true, it means that the nodes array's length will always be equal to width*depth It is used mainly in the editor to do auto-scanning calls, setting it to false for a non-uniform grid will reduce the number of scans
|
getprotected |
Use heigh raycasting normal for max slope calculation.
True if maxSlope is less than 90 degrees.
