UZdDm1BPiK- Joel Burgess August 18, 2021 But their AI is very simplified: they basically can *only* run away. In most situations, you're seeing AI decide what do to (run at player, hide in cover, etc), use navmesh to make a path, and navigate along that path.įoxes are no different.
As Burgess says, navmesh "is an invisible 3D sheet of polygons that is laid over the world, telling AI where it can and cannot go".įoxes, which can only run away from the player, use this navmesh for pathfinding, like all other AI in Skyrim. The explanation had to do with the way Skyrim's AI use 'navmesh' for navigation. This wasn't intentional, so they investigated. Hot on the heels of 14-year Bethesda veteran - and now solo indie developer - Nate Purkeypile's wonderful development anecdote about Skyrim's iconic cart ride getting catapulted into space by a bee, fellow Bethesda veteran Joel Burgess, who worked on Skyrim as a level designer and now heads up Grindstone developer Capybara Games, took to Twitter to detail the treasure fox.Īs Burgess explains, shortly after Skyrim came out, the developers saw players report that if they followed foxes they would lead them to treasure. Now, nearly a decade after Skyrim came out, the treasure fox myth is finally explained - and the truth is, it's sort of right, and sort of wrong.
