[BEHAVIOR] EasyStar.js pathfinding for tilemap

Just went through the SDK doc, and indeed, it was all explained there :

construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/addon-sdk/reference/specifying-dependencies

Hello, does this behavior work without tilemap? I'm currently trying to use a different pathfinder behavior from the original because I need it to create a path by grids, with each new path position being in the next grid position and unfortunately, the original one doesn't seems to work for me...

but in my game, I'm not using tilemaps, I'm creating the map ramdonly with sprites basically, this behavior could work for me?

It has to use a tilemap, but the tilemap itself can be hidden. When you build your world, you'd have to sync the tilemap with each sprite placed, and you can use a simple binary tilemap to do so (empty tile for passable terrain and filled tile for obstacle).

Got an error after trying to use the Tilemap after adding the behavior. Using the tilemap without the behavior prevents the error.

Javascript error!

TypeError: tilegrid[y_] is undefined

http://localhost:50000/EasystarTilemap_behavior.js, line 267 (col 5)

This is what pops up when I try to do anything with the tilemap while it has this behavior.

A quick fix, try using classic mode rather than module mode for 'scripts'. This worked for me.

Perhaps Eren can do a quick update to support scripts mode (things like globalThis for globals and const C3 = self.C3 at the top of the files that reference C3.)

Using classic mode for scripts indeed works!

Thank you very much for taking the time to post this fix, I'm very glad to be able to use this addon again.

Eren basically took under his belt the maintenance of this addon with his fantastic C3 runtime conversion. Let's see if he's still active to adapt it to the new module mode for external scripts.

thanks for the notification

I made an arrangement for testing

If it works fine, we can update it

Eren - thanks, this was my user error, I got hit by the dreaded 'bundle addons' issue with one of my old projects (before I learned never to use that setting!)

Thanks for the update, it works!

Thank you for the update, much appreciated!

Hello,

On C3, I have this issue : Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: this.inst.GetSdkInstance(...).GetMapHeight is not a function

Don't know if this plugin is still compatible but seems not :-(
