Special Object - Way Point

Way point is a helper object used by the Artificial Intelligence (AI). Way points are used in SP and MP coop games to mark passages for AI characters.

Way points can be either inserted from a database or using Placement tool ("Placeator" - hotkey O).

It is necessary to connect the way points. For this, use the Link at function (hotkey P). If you wish to make a one-way link, hold down Shift while linking.

Maximum number of way points in a scene is 2500.

Here, the upper two way points have one-way connection in the clock-wise direction, while the lower two have two-way links with the one in the middle.
The two way points in the back are set to "No Shortcuts", while the one in the middle is set to be a "HideOut".
