NPCs Sliding

TayannaStudios

Is there a way to prevent NPCs from sliding and moving when the player walks into them? Or a way for the player to walk around them rather than straight through them?

Hi

I had this exact issue and it was discussed, along with possible solutions in this thread:

Notice one update Chris made after this (mentioned in thread) was to give NPCs the 'ability' to avoid the player if they get too close.

Thanks, but changing the mass to 10000 or above doesn't work. Using the the 'Avoid Player' just makes the NPC slide from further away.

It would be great if there was a way of making the player automatically walk around the NPC.

Yeah, that was my hope. I managed by putting a trigger under the NPC to make an action occur where the player came to a stop.

Altering your navmesh could work, but if you need the NPC to use the navmesh then it clearly will result in problems. A solution for that problem might be to use a navmesh hole which gets turned off when you want the NPC to access the navmesh.
