Bug Pathfinding only working on one agent at a time [2D]

My agentmesh works in scene view, and in game view, but is invisible in game view? This is the code I use, and the settings for the agent.

Code (CSharp):

1.     Transform player;
2.     UnityEngine.AI.NavMeshAgent agent;
3.  
4.     private void Start()
5.  
6.     {
7.         agent = GetComponent<UnityEngine.AI.NavMeshAgent>();
8.         agent.updateRotation = false;
9.         agent.updateUpAxis = false;
10.  
11.     }
12.  
13.  
14.     public void init()
15.     {
16.         player = GameObject.Find("Player").transform;
17.  
18.     }
19.  
20.  
21.  
22.     public void goToPlayer()
23.     {
24.  
25.         agent.SetDestination(player.position);
26.  
27.     }
28.        
29.  
30. }

And my navmesh settings:




Now the other problem I have. I insert that script into two different gameobjects. It works on both, as in, the start function does. But when gotoplayer() is called, it only works on one at a time. I can't figure out why this is. If I remove the script from one, it'll work on the other and vice versa. But never at the same time.

I've even tried setting different targets for both objects thinking maybe that had something to do with it, but still, it doesn't work.

 

are you calling goToPlayer() on both scripts? i guess you are calling it from another script?

 

Yes. Im calling gotoplayer from another script. That should call it to ALL objects that have the script. No?

 

No, it will only call the one that you are referencing at.

One way to keep track of many agents
would be adding them to list when they are spawned,
then loop the list and call that method for all.

 

oh ok. Well what about them disappearing at game view?

 

do they have some mesh renderer or other visible object on them?

 

yes they have sprite renderer with a sprite, I can see them in scene view and they move around there too but I can’t see them in game view, but in gizmos I see them moving around just not their sprite

And I know it because when I remove them from being an agent, they show up, but when I add the agent component it makes them disappear.

 

maybe screenshot or gif/video would help..
to see how the sprite is assigned,
how camera is looking towards them,
maybe sprite gets rotated with agent? (so that camera cannot see)

 

Here's the settings + a video

If I remove the agent component, then reload the play scene, it will show up, but putting the agent component back will make it invisible (even after it sets UpAxis, etc to false).

The agent is on the same layer as the camera renders (Default..) so it's not that.

 

if you hide that ground, is it visible? (if sorting order somehow gets wrong value)

 

Yeah hiding the map doesnt change anything sadly.

Edit: For some weird reason, adding a navmeshagent component to the player fixed it?

But now I have another issue, with the Agent component now attached to my player, i run around and I randomly get stuck. Just. Stop moving randomly. And I need to nudge one of the keys to keep moving again (but the running animation still plays). I'm using unity input movement system btw.
