Hi!

The question is about the skills that are available with the nodes and how to apply these skills in the path.

In the manual we find:

path_getnode(ENTITY*,var node, VECTOR* pos, var* skills )

As example we find:

path_getnode(my,1, temp, my.skill1 );

The node has a skill (1 to 6) why do you write my.skill1 and not node.skill1 ?
How can the Entity pick up skill1 from the node?
Also :
The “var* skills” is a vector and the debugger asks for a vector
I wrote the following:
path_getnode(my ,node, pos_node, vector(1,0,0));
The debugger accepted this.

What do I replace “VAR* skills” with?
How do I use the information that I have placed in the node skill 1 in WeD?
(I numbered all the nodes at skill one with the same number that the node has.)

See: http://manual.conitec.net/apath_setnode.htm

"skills" is a var* pointer to an array of at least 6 vars. It receives the node skills. So you can either self-define it (like var test[6];) or use any entity skill from skill1 up to skill94. Entity skills are an array of 100 vars, so in the example six of them (skill1..skill6) get filled with the node skills.

Passing a vector, as in your example above, will cause a crash. A vector is an array of only 3 vars, so the function would write its last 3 skills into memory where they don't belong.
