How do you handle agents of differing sizes?

I'm trying to create navigation for a demo that will include wolves and elephants, with understandably different sizes.

Is there any better way to handle this than just baking for the largest agent size possible? Will larger agents automatically adapt and not try to walk into tight spaces?

i've got little buildings i'd like the wolves to walk inside, but not the elephants obviously.

any thoughts would be appreciated

 

I dont think unity's navigation suports different agent sizes, it is on the roadmap as one of the future improvements.
You can try and use some alternative navitation available at the asset store, some of them support this in some way.

 

I think that just increase the size is the best way unfortunately. That's kind of random, and u should be sure that every building entry is small enough for elephant and large enough for wolfes.

 

Standard solution is to use different grid/navmesh for every unit size.

 

@Roni92pl
This is a novel idea actually. How can i make multiple navmeshes for the same area though, and how can i tell a particular agent which one to use? I need more information here

 

Well, I didn't said it's possible with Unity's navmeshes, but all high quality pathfinding solutions should have such possibility, look on the asset store.
