1.4?

Updated the About.xml but i doubt the core mod itself still works correctly since pathfinding has been touched upon in the meantime.

This mod has been long abandoned by the original author.

For better Pathfinding i suggest the current mod : "Perfect Pathfinding"

I need a mod like this that still works, I have roads built all over my settlement and watch my pawns walk through rough slate and soil the entire time, almost avoiding roads and several times walking DIRECTLY next to them along them to get to a destination, in a straight line, one tile over from a straight road, for freaking 50 tiles. All 50 paved, but no, through bushes and trees... Wtf?

would love to see this updated, noticing alot of really stupid pathing in latest rimworld version.

This mod is not obsolete anymore. Improved pathfinding was ditched in recent vanilla versions as a cheap way to improve performance.

@Moddeus That is exactly why I am here. Colonists don't seem to care about trees being in their way at all. ESPECIALLY while being chased by something

I need something to prevent my colonists from deciding to go straight through trees instead of around, any recommendations?

このMODを使用すると１００％ゲームが出来なくなります。
今の処、地図作成時にクラッシュする確率がa17 b17 で１００％です。

a17 b17 どちらでも、地図作成を妨害する原因になっています。
このMODが原因である事を突き止めるのに２日掛かりました。

What u think is kinda irrelevant as that's how it is.

Can someone please update this?
I don't think its the vanilla feature and i liked this mod.

IMPORTANT : "There's no need; it's already included in A17."

That's it. I'm done. Anyone else who experiences a problem from using this mod when it's unnecessary can just tough it out.

The use of this MOD will generate a map error

Read the VERY FIRST LINE OF THE DESCRIPTION.

Causes MapGen to crash. Do not subscribe.

Disable the mod

Exact same problem as Aco crashes it everytime the the log points to BetterPahinding

Better Pathfinding crashes my game when it tries to load a new Map.

there's path avoid u can use

lol no :p well thats a bummer something like a constructed path prefrence mod would be pretty usefull

i'm not the author of the mod (i do know programming though) so no^^ and yes the mod is broken as i wrote, i just updated the .about.xml.

the mod is vanilla.

@Jaridan would it be possible if you could tweak the mod or make a new one that some how gets the pawns to perferr using a constructed path. my maps get really overgrown with plantlife and the paws completely ignore constructed paths and roads. would be nice if they didnt

Copied verbatim from the beginning of the description:

"IMPORTANT : "There's no need; it's already included in A17."

Seems this mod will become obsolete upon A17 release as a vanilla feature."

Maybe that's what caused your issue.....

Broke game for me too, can't generate map... Sigh, i used to play with it in 0.15... It wa sa really good mod...

BROKE THE BLOODY GAME DO NOT USE

@James009
It's been there at the beginning of the description since 19 July 2017.
Not the author's fault if you scroll past without reading.

I suggest updating the description and mod name to reflect that it's obsolete and in basegame . Use some big bold text or a heading or something.

I too just spent two hours discovering which mod was breaking my game.

Yep, cant get it to work. and as Hypersapien said, the vanilla pathfinder still is ridiculous.

Broke game for me

@AtmaCola The mod is already included in a17

no longer work, cant gen map

cant generate maps/play with this mod on

it doesn't work

is it fixed now? I don't want to keep having to use path avoid

Finally! After hours of trying to figure why my game crashed at start this mod was the culcript. 100+ mods problems :)

It seems just change the about.xml file does not work

I literally just changed the about.xml to include the current versionsnumber, the basecode of the algorithm is untouched, as the author is

ZHENTAR

and not me.

Idk if it will change anything, since the mod should be vanilla pathing as far as i know.

Please re-implement this for a17. I don't give a damn what Tynan said, vanilla pathfinding is still broken and yours worked beautifully.

We now have confirmation from Tynan that pathfinding in A17 is broken.

@Klamann this mod is now a Vanilla feature, there's "nothing" to update. If you believe it is then just go and change the about.xml to the newer gameversion.

But again this mod, in its entirety, is in the game now, vanilla.

THIS WILL BE MY LAST STATEMENT ON THIS :
I've stated it multiple times and it's at the top of the description.

THIS MOD IS INCLUDED IN THE BASE GAME AS OF A17.

Big shoutout to the creator Zhentar for providing us with this superb mod.

I'd love to see an update for this mod. I know there have been some improvements to the pathfinding behaviour in A17, but it's still far from what Better Pathfinding provides. I have colonists walking through swamps all over again...

Clearly in A17 elephants are much more intelligent than my colonists when it comes to pathfinding. It was not the case in A16.

I'm not the creator but you can read the quote on the official forumthread that's also linked in the description.

As stated this is included vanilla now so there's no need for further updates.

@Spaz
That's what the description says, and I have no reason to doubt the creator.....

This is included by default in new build?

"There's no need; it's already included in A17."

Please update this to a17! :D

:)

Thanks for supporting us !!
