Functions

add_to_world ( self ) Adds the given GwNavBoxObstacle to the world that was specified when it was created.

Parameters

self :

stingray.GwNavBoxObstacle

Specifies the object instance that this function will act on. You must always provide this self parameter when you call this function. You must use the dot . calling syntax, not the object-oriented colon : calling syntax.For more information, see Object lifetimes and userdata binding, or this page in the Lua documentation.

Returns

This function does not return any values.

create ( nav_world, position, local_center, half_extents, is_exclusive, color, layer_id, smartobject_id, user_data_id ) : stingray.GwNavBoxObstacle Creates a GwNavBoxObstacle

Parameters

nav_world :	stingray.GwNavWorld	The GwNavWorld that this obstacle will belong to.
position :	stingray.Vector3	The position of the obstacle.
local_center :	stingray.Vector3	The center of rotation of the obstacle.
half_extents :	stingray.Vector3	The half extents of the box obstacle.
is_exclusive :	boolean	Whether the NavTag associated with this obstacle causes the NavMesh to be untraversable.
color :	stingray.Quaternion?	The Color you would like the obstacle to tag the NavMesh with. Use stingray.Color(r,g,b) to create a color. If nil, default color is applied. Unused if is_exclusive is true? The ? notation indicates that this type is optional: there may be zero or one instances of it.
layer_id :	number?	The layer you would like to associate with this obstacle. Unused if is_exclusive is true? The ? notation indicates that this type is optional: there may be zero or one instances of it.
smartobject_id :	number?	The smartobject you would like to associate with this obstacle. Unused if is_exclusive is true? The ? notation indicates that this type is optional: there may be zero or one instances of it.
user_data_id :	number?	The user data you would like to associate with this GwNavBoxObstacle. Unused if is_exclusive is true? The ? notation indicates that this type is optional: there may be zero or one instances of it.

Returns

stingray.GwNavBoxObstacle

The created obstacle.

create_exclusive ( nav_world, position, local_center, half_extents ) : stingray.GwNavBoxObstacle Creates a GwNavBoxObstacle with exclusive NavTag.

Parameters

nav_world :	stingray.GwNavWorld	The GwNavWorld that this obstacle will belong to.
position :	stingray.Vector3	The position of the obstacle.
local_center :	stingray.Vector3	The center of rotation of the obstacle.
half_extents :	stingray.Vector3	The half extents of the box obstacle.

Returns

stingray.GwNavBoxObstacle

The created obstacle.
