Feature request: Going backwards along a path

Hi

Can I request a feature? Is it possible to have the Move Along Path action have a new option to Reverse along a path? That is to start from the chosen path node (closest, specified etc) and then go backwards along it from the current node down the node numbers back to the zero node?

Use case is to have a path that takes an NPC to an object, or area, have them do something, then travel back to the starting point along the same path, but going from the highest node to the lowest.

Currently I'm having to create a path to the area, then a path out, which is just duplicating work.

Apologies if this is already in there somewhere.

Thanks

Olly

  • It may be possible already, if I'm following you correctly.

    A Path's Path type field can be set to Reverse Only to have characters move backward along it, but in your case you might be best off setting to Loop, and then attaching a "Node Cutscene" on the end of it that causes the NPC to do their thing before moving back.
