Animate Your NavMeshAgents with Root Motion | AI Series Part 42 | Unity Tutorial

Описание: Full Tutorial:    • Root Motion NavMeshAgent Animation | AI Se...  

Learn how to combine a Root Motion animated model with a NavMeshAgent! This gives you all the pathing benefits and local avoidance of the Navigation System with the precise animation you expect from Root Motion.

Root Motion is a great way to remove that annoying "foot sliding" from mismatched animation vs velocity. But synchronizing that motion with a NavMeshAgent can be tricky! The NavMeshAgent knows where to go and considers local avoidance. So, there's a lot of things to consider when trying to match these two systems!

We've already learned how to animate NavMeshAgents where the NavMeshAgent drives the Animator state (way back in AI Series Part 3:    • Sync Animator and NavMeshAgent States | AI...  ), but in this video we're going to do it the other way - with the Animator driving the NavMeshAgent!

There are multiple ways to approach this solution. In this repository I have chosen what makes the most sense to me - correcting the position of the Root Motion to pathable areas by moving the position of the model back towards the NavMeshAgent when they are out of sync.
