Hey everyone!


I can't seem to find much information about this, so pardon me if I've overlooked something. I'm trying to spawn in a structure that I want to be navmeshed. Considering the nature of them, I've been unable to access them via script and from what I've read, that's impossible.

So how exactly would you spawn in a navmeshed structure? Is such a thing even possible?

Thanks, and take care!

Only way afaik is making the two navmeshes (before and after the change) and then disable/enable them. This is possible in FO3/NV not sure about Skyrim.

Don't think that a system like in Fallout 4 is even possible in Skyrim.

Hey, thanks for the response. =-)


Specifically I want followers to interact with the structure, mainly just for immersion purposes honestly. But if it's not possible, then I can live with it.

I wonder, are there ways to imitate a navmesh with currently available resources?

Navmesh the structure, then place a Navcut primitive on the parts where NPC's can walk into it. When you enable the structure, disable the Navcut.

You can make a navcut by creating a collision primitive from the toolbar, go to it's primitives tab and set it to Navcut.

That's the fastest way to manipulate navmesh in script imo.

As Di0 says create a primitive navcut type box on top of the navmesh and enable/disable via script whenever you want your NPC's to be able to walk over it or not. You can also make your structure a parent object and the primitive a linked child object so whenever your structure is enabled/disabled so will the navcut box too.

Have a look at the player homes its basically how purchased house upgrades work the purchase script enables an invisible xmarker and all the linked child objects (the previously disabled and invisible house upgrade objects) all become enabled and visible too. In the case of Hearthfires theres a few navcut boxes that are disabled/enabled too where the child bedrooms will be especially Proudspire as you don't want NPC's trying to wander into a room that doesn't exist/hasn't been purchased yet.
