When I call "ped.jumpTo(node)" and/or "ped.setLocation(node)" the agents still "move" to the specified location instead of "jumping to" (like in the process modelling library).
I want to "teleport" pedestrians from one location (node) how do I go about doing this? Seems like an obvious question....so I am missing something basic...
I believe that pedestrians location are managed outside of our control, since they interact with each other based on the engine. This can lead to undefined behavior: what if you try to teleport onde pedestrian on top of another? What is there is a pedestrian moving to the same place that the pedestrian you are trying to jump?
So as long as the pedestrian is inside the Pedestrian Library, I don't think you can control their position. Either you would have to move it, or use a Ped Exit
block (where it exits the library, and won't occupy space - according to the settings on the block), and then a Ped Enter block (where it re-enters the library and the position management). You can then set the enter position or location at the pedEnter for re-entrance.
