How are you moving the game objects? Are you setting their velocity or adding forces to them?

@JekasG can you tell me if the object stays blue for a short period of time and then immediately goes back to white?

It's working for me as well OP. Did you make sure that you assigned the correct layers to your planes?

Correction for 1. I meant to say "regular grid" and not "regular area"

Thank you for the comment @DMGregory, we are tasked with implementing two types of pathfinding graphs. 1 is a regular area, which I've accomplished implementing by scanning the whole area and looking for "unwalkable" objects and "walkable" objects. 2. I need to manually insert PoV nodes, which I haven't started on yet

Thank you, I'm still a beginner with game dev but I think this helped clarify my concerns.

Perhaps you're right DMGregory, it is overkill. However part of our course outline we are required to do research on a technique of our choosing so this implementation of clustering technique could kill two birds with one stone

"Okay, rule of thumb never use Euler angles unless you have to." If we're working in only two axis (or 2.5D if you will), wouldn't it be ok to use Euler angles as it won't suffer from Gimbal locking?

Thank you for your input mklingen. I haven't had the chance to speak to the professor regarding clustering, but I feel that I could get away with clustering regions manually as opposed to having it automated. >If you know the number of clusters, (or can guess them) I would have to guess 7 in total based off the level requirement. I edited the question to reflect this
