NavigationAgent2D
=================

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

2D Agent used in navigation for collision avoidance.

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

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

2D Agent that is used in navigation to reach a position while avoiding static and dynamic obstacles. The dynamic obstacles are avoided using RVO collision avoidance. The agent needs navigation data to work correctly. **NavigationAgent2D** is physics safe.

\ **Note:** After setting :ref:`target_position<class_NavigationAgent2D_property_target_position>` it is required to use the :ref:`get_next_path_position<class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_next_path_position>` function once every physics frame to update the internal path logic of the NavigationAgent. The returned vector position from this function should be used as the next movement position for the agent's parent Node.

Signals
-------

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_signal_link_reached:

.. rst-class:: classref-signal

**link_reached** **(** :ref:`Dictionary<class_Dictionary>` details **)**

Notifies when a navigation link has been reached.

The details dictionary may contain the following keys depending on the value of :ref:`path_metadata_flags<class_NavigationAgent2D_property_path_metadata_flags>`:

- ``position``: The start position of the link that was reached.

- ``type``: Always :ref:`NavigationPathQueryResult2D.PATH_SEGMENT_TYPE_LINK<class_NavigationPathQueryResult2D_constant_PATH_SEGMENT_TYPE_LINK>`.

- ``rid``: The :ref:`RID<class_RID>` of the link.

- ``owner``: The object which manages the link (usually :ref:`NavigationLink2D<class_NavigationLink2D>`).

- ``link_entry_position``: If ``owner`` is available and the owner is a :ref:`NavigationLink2D<class_NavigationLink2D>`, it will contain the global position of the link's point the agent is entering.

- ``link_exit_position``: If ``owner`` is available and the owner is a :ref:`NavigationLink2D<class_NavigationLink2D>`, it will contain the global position of the link's point which the agent is exiting.

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_signal_waypoint_reached:

.. rst-class:: classref-signal

**waypoint_reached** **(** :ref:`Dictionary<class_Dictionary>` details **)**

Notifies when a waypoint along the path has been reached.

The details dictionary may contain the following keys depending on the value of :ref:`path_metadata_flags<class_NavigationAgent2D_property_path_metadata_flags>`:

- ``position``: The position of the waypoint that was reached.

- ``type``: The type of navigation primitive (region or link) that contains this waypoint.

- ``rid``: The :ref:`RID<class_RID>` of the containing navigation primitive (region or link).

- ``owner``: The object which manages the containing navigation primitive (region or link).

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

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_property_avoidance_enabled:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **avoidance_enabled** = ``false``

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

- void **set_avoidance_enabled** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **get_avoidance_enabled** **(** **)**

If ``true`` the agent is registered for an RVO avoidance callback on the :ref:`NavigationServer2D<class_NavigationServer2D>`. When :ref:`set_velocity<class_NavigationAgent2D_method_set_velocity>` is used and the processing is completed a ``safe_velocity`` Vector2 is received with a signal connection to :ref:`velocity_computed<class_NavigationAgent2D_signal_velocity_computed>`. Avoidance processing with many registered agents has a significant performance cost and should only be enabled on agents that currently require it.

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

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_distance_to_target:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`float<class_float>` **distance_to_target** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the distance to the target position, using the agent's global position. The user must set :ref:`target_position<class_NavigationAgent2D_property_target_position>` in order for this to be accurate.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_current_navigation_path:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`PackedVector2Array<class_PackedVector2Array>` **get_current_navigation_path** **(** **)** |const|

Returns this agent's current path from start to finish in global coordinates. The path only updates when the target position is changed or the agent requires a repath. The path array is not intended to be used in direct path movement as the agent has its own internal path logic that would get corrupted by changing the path array manually. Use the intended :ref:`get_next_path_position<class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_next_path_position>` once every physics frame to receive the next path point for the agents movement as this function also updates the internal path logic.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_current_navigation_path_index:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`int<class_int>` **get_current_navigation_path_index** **(** **)** |const|

Returns which index the agent is currently on in the navigation path's :ref:`PackedVector2Array<class_PackedVector2Array>`.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_current_navigation_result:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`NavigationPathQueryResult2D<class_NavigationPathQueryResult2D>` **get_current_navigation_result** **(** **)** |const|

Returns the path query result for the path the agent is currently following.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_final_position:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` **get_final_position** **(** **)**

Returns the reachable final position in global coordinates. This can change if the navigation path is altered in any way. Because of this, it would be best to check this each frame.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_navigation_layer_value:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **get_navigation_layer_value** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` layer_number **)** |const|

Returns whether or not the specified layer of the :ref:`navigation_layers<class_NavigationAgent2D_property_navigation_layers>` bitmask is enabled, given a ``layer_number`` between 1 and 32.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_navigation_map:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

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

Returns the :ref:`RID<class_RID>` of the navigation map for this NavigationAgent node. This function returns always the map set on the NavigationAgent node and not the map of the abstract agent on the NavigationServer. If the agent map is changed directly with the NavigationServer API the NavigationAgent node will not be aware of the map change. Use :ref:`set_navigation_map<class_NavigationAgent2D_method_set_navigation_map>` to change the navigation map for the NavigationAgent and also update the agent on the NavigationServer.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_next_path_position:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` **get_next_path_position** **(** **)**

Returns the next position in global coordinates that can be moved to, making sure that there are no static objects in the way. If the agent does not have a navigation path, it will return the position of the agent's parent. The use of this function once every physics frame is required to update the internal path logic of the NavigationAgent.

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

----

.. _class_NavigationAgent2D_method_get_rid:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

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