Member Function Documentation

◆ DeserializeComponent()

void ezRcAgentComponent::DeserializeComponent ( ezWorldReader inout_stream)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Override this to load the current state of the component from the given stream.

The active state will be automatically serialized. The 'initialized' state is not serialized, all components will be initialized after creation, even if they were already in an initialized state when they were serialized.

Reimplemented from ezAgentSteeringComponent.

◆ FindNavMeshPolyAt()

ezResult ezRcAgentComponent::FindNavMeshPolyAt ( const ezVec3 vPosition,
dtPolyRef &  out_polyRef,
ezVec3 out_pAdjustedPosition = nullptr,
float  fPlaneEpsilon = 0.01f,
float  fHeightEpsilon = 1.0f 
) const
Todo:
Hard-coded filter

◆ HasReachedPosition()

) const

The comment below may not always be true

◆ OnSimulationStarted()

void ezRcAgentComponent::OnSimulationStarted ( )
overrideprivatevirtual

This method is called once for active components, at the start of the next world update, but only when the world is simulated.

This is the one preferred method to setup typical game logic. In a pure game environment there is no practical difference between OnActivated() and OnSimulationStarted(), as OnSimulationStarted() will be called right after OnActivated().

However, when a scene is open inside the editor, there is an important difference: OnActivated() is called once the component was created. OnSimulationStarted() is only called once the game simulation is started inside the editor. As an example, if a component starts a sound in OnActivated(), that sound will play right after the scene has been loaded into the editor. If instead the sound gets started in OnSimulationStarted(), it will only play once the user starts the game mode inside the editor.

Additionally, OnSimulationStarted() is only executed once, even if the ezWorld pauses and resumes world simulation multiple times. However, note that it will be called again after the component has been deactivated and is activated again.
