How do I…

I want to make an AI costumer for my unreleased supermarket simulator game. I want him to pass from all shelfs (stay on each one for a second) and also don’t want the customer to pass through walls or shelfs

What is the expected result

When the game is run, once you open your market a costumer comes after some seconds and browse the shop. If they find something, they come to the cash register

What is the actual result

The character doesn’t move.

I haven’t made any code because I haven’t set it up

Project files (optional)

Insert a minimal game showing your issue in a .zip or .rar.

Hi,

To make your ai customers walk around the shelves, use the Pathfinding behaviour and add obstacle behaviour to impassable objects like walls and shelves. Then, use a state machine to move the customer to each shelf one by one using Move to position behaviour action. After reaching a shelf, add a small wait with a Wait action or a timer, then move to the next.

One solution could be to create a few pre-defined paths and have it pick one at a random then circle between them , eventually ending at a final destination like the cash register.
