Hey guys,
Been a while since I've been able to provide something cool to the community, so without further delay I will show you how to parse the navigation mesh for source maps.
If you are wondering why someone would want to parse the navigation mesh, it contains graphed information about walkable areas of the level. It also provides a means to connect these areas together, connect ladders to walkable areas, mark hiding spots within these areas, sniper spots within these areas, encounter areas with T distance, and likely other data I have yet to uncover.
I plan to update this article and the files attached with the article as I figure out anything new. I have a feeling that the "unk01" value inside NavMeshArea is actually something to do with Sniper Spots (since I don't recall mapping that data yet)
My hope is that someone (*cough* Necavi) will take this information and give it some life in the SourcePawn context. It could be the beginning of some incredible innovations.
