AI Patrol Path Node Devices

Use the AI Patrol Path Node device to create simple or complex patrolling behavior for guards spawned with the Guard Spawner device.

Place the device where you want to start a patrol path. Using your phone tool, place additional nodes (points) to mark the patrol path (use the hotkey control for placing or copying). The nodes will all be connected by a colored line, which will have directional arrows based on the patrol behavior you choose in the device options. You can use the phone tool to remove a node by using the control for cutting or deleting. See the image below for an example.

The Copy and Cut hotkeys change to Append Node and Move Node when you're working with this device.

Paths can be straight or curved, and can go up and down stairs or slopes. You can create many different patrol paths, and set other devices to send signals that cause guards to switch from one path to another.
