NavigationObstacle
==================

**Inherits:** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

3D obstacle used in navigation for collision avoidance.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

3D obstacle used in navigation for collision avoidance. The obstacle needs navigation data to work correctly. This can be done by having the obstacle as a child of a :ref:`Navigation<class_Navigation>` node, or using :ref:`set_navigation<class_NavigationObstacle_method_set_navigation>`. **NavigationObstacle** is physics safe.

Obstacles **don't** change the resulting path from the pathfinding, they only affect the navigation agent movement in a radius. Therefore, using obstacles for the static walls in your level won't work because those walls don't exist in the pathfinding. The navigation agent will be pushed in a semi-random direction away while moving inside that radius. Obstacles are intended as a last resort option for constantly moving objects that cannot be (re)baked to a navigation mesh efficiently.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_NavigationObstacle_property_estimate_radius:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **estimate_radius** = ``true``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_estimate_radius** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_radius_estimated** **(** **)**

Enables radius estimation algorithm which uses parent's collision shapes to determine the obstacle radius.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

.. _class_NavigationObstacle_property_radius:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **radius** = ``1.0``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_radius** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` value **)**
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_radius** **(** **)**

The radius of the agent. Used only if :ref:`estimate_radius<class_NavigationObstacle_property_estimate_radius>` is set to ``false``.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_NavigationObstacle_method_get_navigation:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Node<class_Node>` **get_navigation** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the :ref:`Navigation<class_Navigation>` node that the obstacle is using for its navigation system.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_NavigationObstacle_method_get_rid:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`RID<class_RID>` **get_rid** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the :ref:`RID<class_RID>` of this obstacle on the :ref:`NavigationServer<class_NavigationServer>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_NavigationObstacle_method_set_navigation:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

void **set_navigation** **(** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` navigation **)**

Sets the :ref:`Navigation<class_Navigation>` node used by the obstacle. Useful when you don't want to make the obstacle a child of a :ref:`Navigation<class_Navigation>` node.
