Problem with Pathfinding and differently sized layouts

Hello, I have the following problem: I start with a character which moves with the Pathfinding Behavior, on a layout of width X. Then, I transition to another layout of width 2X. In this layout, I cannot move out of the "original" borders of the first layout. Does anyone know why this happens, and how can I fix this?

Since I'm not good at explaining (and English isn't my first language), I simulated the problem on a small .capx so you can see for yourself. Thanks in advance!

Edit: I forgot to delete line 3 of the event sheet. I put it to see if the problem was that pathfinder couldn't find a path. You can delete if you want.

I took a look at your file. Is there a reason your backgrounds have collisions enabled? This appears to be what is stopping the character. An object with collisions enabled is considered an obstacle when path finding. I set collisions to disabled on both the number 1 sprite and the number 2 sprite and the character traversed the entire width of the area just fine.

I guess my example wasn't exactly the same as the real problem >< The thing is, in the real game I'm using TiledBackground elements instead of sprites at the background, and it seems TB's don't have the "collissions enabled" property. Also, I think I forgot to mention, if I visit the bigger layout *before* visiting the smaller one, the problem doesn't seem to appear (which is no good, because I need to visit the earlier stages first). :c

Does your character have the "Bound To Layout" behavior? I gave the behavior to the character in the version you posted, turned off collisions and tested it again and got the same results. If I start on layout 2, the player can traverse all of layout 2. If I start on layout 1 and go to layout 2, the character is limited to the area of layout 1.

Call 'Regenerate obstacle map' on start of layout.

Thanks so much, you saved me!

you could do it like so

I have the same problem, but i can't seem to get around it, i see you can "Regenerate obstacle map' before you're switching layouts, which seems a little odd for me, since the changes are in the next layout.

I tried calling it on the start of layout or on the end of previous layout, but no dice.

Ashely can you shed some light on this problem?
