Make ped follow player

[alexguirre 776]

I've been trying to achieve this but it never ends up working well, the best code I get is below but the ped sometimes gets stuck in the ladders(he stays looking at the ladder) and the movement of the ped isn't smooth:

 

	Ped ped = new Ped(player.GetOffsetPosition(new Vector3(0f, -4f, 0f)));

	GameFiber.Sleep(1000);

	NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_PED_PATH_CAN_USE_CLIMBOVERS", ped, true);

	NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_PED_PATH_CAN_USE_LADDERS", ped, true);

	NativeFunction.CallByName<uint>("SET_PED_PATH_CAN_DROP_FROM_HEIGHT", ped, true);

	while (!Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.Y))

	{

	    GameFiber.Yield();

	    if (Vector3.Distance(player.Position, ped.Position) > 2.0f)

	    {

	        Vector3 p = player.GetOffsetPosition(new Vector3(0f, -1.25f, 0f));

	        Task t = ped.Tasks.FollowNavigationMeshToPosition(p, player.Heading, 1.0f);

	        while (Vector3.Distance(player.Position, ped.Position) > 5.0f)

	        {

	            GameFiber.Yield();

	            if (Vector3.Distance(p, ped.Position) < 2.0f) break;

	            if (t.Status == TaskStatus.Interrupted) break;

	            if (!t.IsActive) break;

	        }

	        ped.Tasks.Clear();

	    }

	}

 

 

 

Does anyone have a better code?

You need to provide some more WaitTime I think. Maybe you could try Sleeping the GameFiber for 500 ms or so every tick?

Also, although I'm not sure in this case, I don't recommend clearing the ped's tasks every time.

That makes it work a bit smoother. When it gets stuck in front of a ladder if I clear the tasks and make the loop again he climbs it, I suppose it gets the vector3 in midair and the AI doesn't know what to do. I might check if the player is climbing d wait for it to finish and tanhen get the vector3 and assign the task.
