Small problem here.
Well i have a path code. It works very well until I want to make the enemy walk back the same path. How to do that?
Please help people.

I have two ideas...
1. create a thin elipsoid path and enemy will go around
2. not sure but maybe will work
if(node == last_node) {node = path_nextnode(my,node,-1);}

I've made a changePath demo, you can download it here

store the paths nodes in an array and you can all you need (forward/backward/jump to node)

Well your idea is good but i need only one path , because the main idea is - when the enemy see the player, he runs back the same path to alert the base.

O.K. will try...

WHAT IS - path_nodepos ?
AND WHAT DOES IT DO ?
path_nodepos(0,0,0);???

path_nodepos didn't exists - it's a bug in the helpfile.

use path_getnode to get the nodes position.

The next problem is - how to make a new path scan code?
When i want to search a new path it makes strange things.
In the begin enemy walks it's path normal, but when he comes to the end he can't find another path? Let's say when the node 6 is taken then search a new path-but it didn't work...
Whats the problem ? ? ?
Script-
if(node == 6)
{
result = path_scan(pedalis2,pedalis2.x,pedalis2.pan, VECTOR(360,180,1000));
if(result == 0){error("[censored]");return;}
else{error("path_found");}
node = 1;
path_getnode(my,node,node_pos,null);
}

O.K.
Needed just - path_scannode(ENTITY*,var index);
Thats all.
