Question Is there any intention for a solid plan for Terrain & NavMesh (Pathfinding) in DOTS?

Hi All,

Should Terrain & NavMesh in DOTS exist in the near future (Next 3 ~ 6 month) or should I do my own Pathfinding and Terrains deal with Unity.Physics Package?

Thanks.

 

I haven't heard anything about NavMesh publicly however the existing solution can work with entities with a little tweaking. The 2 known packages they are working on atm are Animation (Unity.Motion) and Terrain (Unity.Environment).

As for release dates, they won't give you one and the best we've squeeze out of a Unity dev for Terrain is
2023-07-02 - "maybe closed beta soonish"
But who know's what that means

 

Tank you.

 

NavMesh (Pathfinding) Some APIs already support entities, of course, these APIs are still in the experimental stage.

Wow thank you so much.

 

You can find a NavMesh implementation in my repo: https://github.com/enzi/NZCore.Pathfinding
