Overview

Wander state makes the ghost move freely across the map, without being tied to its favorite room — with some limitations, of course

Enter

• If canWander is false, change state to Favourite Room
• If DOTS is an evidence and, roll 33% chance, if successful, check if the ghost is not a Goryo, then enter DOTS State
• Otherwise (67% chance), check if Goryo is in favorite room and there are no players in the current ghost room, if conditions are met, enter DOTS State
• If DOTS is not an evidence or 33% chance was rolled, go through below logic

Special cases

• If the ghost is a Mare and light state is On, roll 50% chance for long roam, otherwise short roam
• If the ghost is a Banshee, roll 50% chance for long roam, otherwise roll 2/3 chance to move towards target's position (short roam), otherwise short roam

Normal logic

• Check if the ghost is in favorite room, roll 10%, 20%, 30% chance to perform a long roam, depending on Roaming frequency setting
• Otherwise initiate a short roam

Execute

• Generate a random position within a sphere with a radius of (5 - 11 meters for long, constant 3 meters for short roams) around the ghost’s current position
• Goryo can't set waypoints outside the favorite room if it's currently in the favorite room
• Attempt up to 10 times to find a valid NavMesh position within a sphere of radius
• If Path Distance <= 1.5 * Direct Distance inequality is satisfied, move towards the generated waypoint, stop when the remaining distance is less than or equal to 1 meter, otherwise generate a new position

Roaming to floors restriction

• Check the floor type of the randomly selected position against the ghost’s favorite room’s floor type
• If the floor types differ and allowGhostToRoamToOtherFloor property of the room is false and the roam is short, change the ghost’s state to Idle
• This means ghosts can't short roam between floors, the reason why Banshee can't do its ability in this case, because the ability is always considered as a short roam, exceptions are rooms that have allowGhostToRoamToOtherFloor property set to true

allowGhostToRoamToOtherFloor rooms

• Basement on Tanglewood
• Basement on Edgefield
• Basement on Ridgeview
• Entry Hallway on Point Hope
• Kitchen on Point Hope
• Dining Room on Point Hope
• Games Room on Point Hope
• Bathroom on Point Hope
• Master Bedroom on Point Hope
• Child Bedroom on Point Hope
• Maintenance Room on Point Hope
• Lantern Room (both Top and Bottom) on Point Hope

Example

Goryo can wander out of Basement on Tanglewood, but can't wander on the first floor of Tanglewood, since favourite room is on another floor
