I have just made an outside area, but the pathfinding keeps ending with the following message: "Failed to generate optimized physics (are path nodes generated correctly?)"

I have posted to local, made a start point with the default name, added terrain collision and a few objects. Any ideas? I am using the latest toolset, only just updated it this morning.

[Nwalya42]

Anyone? This is my first outside area, have had no issues with pathfinding on room maps.

[Nwalya42]

Huh - fixed it. For the reference of others, you have to set the area in the exportable area properties - the green area is where it generates pathfinding for. Thanks for your help guys. (that was sarcasm )

I'm getting this same error in an indoor level. Any ideas on the cause or solutions? The exportable area buttons are greyed out.

[Nwalya42]

Oooh - I know this one For an interior (room) level, you have to give the exportable area a name in the Object Inspector - click the thing in the tree saying New Area (icon is little green shape) and change the setting saying <name of exportable area> to something suitable.

[DarthParametric]

Nope, already did that. If you don't change it then every time you try to render a light map it pops up a warning message saying you can't use names with \\/:*?"<>| characters, as I posted here - http://social.biowar...74/index/501727 It must be something else.

Hmm.. Take it you have a room set up with a floor object? and the start point is on said floor object?

[DarthParametric]

Yep. It's pretty much right in the middle of a floor tile. Does it choke when there are overlapping floors and walls?

[Nwalya42]

Shouldn't do - I haven't had any problems with indoor pathfinding - all of my problems occur on exterior maps. You could try a) deleting and replacing your start point, or , making a new map (only place a floor tile) and see if it works on that.

[Nwalya42]

Sorry bout double post. Another possibility is that you are using a narfed model set - you could try a different model set.

This is using the Chantry tileset. Using the same floor in a new level (just 2 floor tiles) generated pathfinding fine:

The other level gives this:

What other things do you have in that level? You could just try copying all of the models to a level, one at a time, and seeing when it stops working.

[DarthParametric]

I did try that, but they don't show up in the new level...

EDIT: Just tried again and this time they did show up. Weird. Will see if this works..

[Nwalya42]

yeah - that happens to me. To make them show up you have to save, exit the level, then open it again.

[DarthParametric]

Copied across the floors and walls into the new level but it still didn't work. I guess I'll have to try it one room at a time.

Here's something weird though. I had prop door (i.e. not a functioning one) behind the starting point. I decided to delete that and the next time I ran pathfinding I got this additional message:

Empty level. Cannot generate pathfinding.

The odd thing is I have generated pathfinding successfully in level that has one room with one or two floor tiles and nothing else. I've never seen this error before.

EDIT: Just played around with another new level file. It is indeed the same error you get when you try to generate pathfinding in a level with just a start point and no geometry - which means for some reason the level isn't seeing all the gazillions of floor and wall tiles I spent hours assembling....

EDIT2: D'oh! I'm a freaking idiot. I just realised the first pieces I used I'd switched the "Export to Game" to none and forgot to switch it back before making a gazillion copies. Urgh. Anyway a brief test switching some back seems to have pathfinding working as expected now. Thanks for your help Nwalya42.
