Follow curve

The follow curve module makes the agents move along a curve.

Attributes

Attributes	Type	Overridable	Description
alignAtInitFrame	bool	no	The agents will be driven by this curve field only at the first frame of the simulation when this flag is turned off.
curve	curve	no	The input curve
curveWeight	double	yes	weight.
maxDistance	double	yes	The max distance from the velocity field. Any agent farther than this value from the field will be ignored.
maxDistanceDropOff	double	yes	Drop off value for smoothly transitioning in and out of the velocity field.
maxTurnAngle	double	no	The agent max turn angle.
samples	int	no	Number of curve samples.
isAnimated	bool	no	If on, the module will rebuild the curve at every frame. This flag should be on if the input curve is animated.
ignoreNextDirectionalModules	bool	yes	If enabled, all next directional modules in the stack will be ignored.
orientationOnly	bool	yes	Affects only the orientation and not the direction
enableLeftSide	bool	yes	Enable influence on the left side of the curve
enableRightSide	bool	yes	Enable influence on the right side of the curve
editLocomotionAngularVelocity	bool	yes	If on, this module will edit the targetAngularVelocity metadata used by the locomotion system
blendWeight	double	yes	The weight used to blend between the curve tangent and the vector to the target position: the closer to 1 the more the agent will follow the target position, the closer to 0 the more the agent will follow the curve tangent.
timeHorizon	double	yes	The time used to multiply the velocity in order to find the target position, which is a point ahead of the agent with the same distance to the curve as the one of the agent at the beginning for the simulation.
