    I have GameObjects/Units I want to move around the map whilst being able to avoid each other.
    I've attached a NavMesh Agent and a NavMesh Obstacle to the units and I've encountered a problem:
    When I move the unit with SetDestination it starts to avoid it's self.

    You should also see a warning in the console :
    "NavMeshAgent and NavMeshObstacle components are active at the same time. This can lead to errorneous behavior."

    So is there a way to use an agent and have other entities avoid it?

    The agents are supposed to avoid each other - depending on some settings like 'obstacleAvoidanceType' and 'avoidancePriority'
