AI mesh tutorial

[korpah]

how can you "launch" those slaves to test if the ai mesh is correct?

Just get some prisoners into the settlement (just use one of the cheats implemented in the mod) and enter the scene.

can you clarify? cause its still not totaly clear (or i'm just stupid)

I seem to have a problem.

I created an AI mesh and the AI (in the siege) doesnt follow it. About half of my army goes the route designated by the Mesh, the rest run into walls...

this is cause the ai sees units above, or behind the wall, it helps to create an ai mesh infront of the wall,

the ai mesh does not denie where the can walk cause the can walk on all ground, it just help the across the battlefield,
adding barriers/more ai mesh should fix this or see if there is no ai mesh under the wall

You can activate the settlement cheats in the camp menu.
When you enter a settlement you can now use the cheats, the most important ones change the settlement level (from e0m0 to e2m2 and all between) and add some soldiers, peasants and prisoners to a settlement. That way you don't need to waste time gathering them.

That mesh still needs a lot of work. I see nothing on top of the wall there. Anywhere inside the castle that people can go needs to have Mesh

Check the help function of the editor, you can find the different functions there.

im trying to fix a siege in medieval conquests....

i cant see any images and im not sure exactly what a face and edge is in respect to ai meshes... can anyone help me? im just trying to get my troops up this ramp... here is what i started with...

you can see the vertices under the ramp so they would get stuck underneath since the pathfinding got confused i guess
