Question - Mech Guardian, chase issues (1 Viewer)

[Gorlio]

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone might have a better mesh or something to be able to dungeon crawl through mech guardian? With the default mesh my guys get stuck on absolutely everything and I spend more time trying to get them around corners than actually fighting things.

Or maybe any tricks to make it work?

Thanks

I think a couple members edit there, and uploaded to the map database. The zone is just trash (its multiple meshe areas due to objects being placed, they also have clipping), Id do as little boxing in there as possible.

and the instanced version of the zones uses "alternate states" where you can't actually mesh with meshgen

Anyone tried the mesh yet? I'm assuming it's good because nobody has come back and told me I am satan for giving them garbage.

No idea. I asked the question but nobody has told me :-P

The instances zones can't be properly meshed because the zones use "alternate states"

I needed one for mech guardian so I grabbed what you shared. So far, it's working well! I've not noticed my puller getting stuck even once yet, so... with any luck that will continue! Thanks so much for posting that.

I haven't had the chance to test yet, was a busy weekend but hopefully test it out a bunch with the triple xp.

I saw you were asking for feedback and I'm exping in the mech guardian. I tried the nav mesh but it doesn't work moving down the corridors. The first step from the teleporter rooms into the runways doesn't work so the toons have to be manually walked over the threshold.

@Virkilian

if your instance is something like guardian_80 for ${Zone.ShortName} it is an "alternate state" of the zone geometry, and at this time, the mesh generator doesn't handle that.

you end up with unconnected pieces like in the image below.

Thanks for the explanation. That's exactly what it does. I saw what you had posted earlier about the "alternate state" issue but didn't realize that was what the instanced zones are.

On a side note, you can get to top level and nav works well on that floor. Can full clear it but 2 mobs.

If you are wanting to stay safe and exp, that's the place to be.

This is how I used to farm that zone years ago - Get the 3rd? box so you can insta click everyone to the top floor. and farm up there with respawns. Might be 4 boxes, found this still on one of my toons.

being that is Mark IV, which is roman numeral for 4. I feel like you're correct that there is at least 4.
