NYC & Company Nodegraphed

Description
Union City, Southside, New York City

I was really surprised when saw that these beautiful night maps didn't have any nodegraph addon, only navmesh. So I decided to do it myself and how can see, it finally uploaded. So, please, enjoy and have fun on these map with this useful update.

Why you need this handmade nodegraph?

Standart NPC's, VJ Base and some others use AI nodes to navigate on maps and build path to players and enemies. Specifically, VJ's don't take a any step without this thing, so if wanna to play with them on these night NYC maps you need this.

Handmade nodegraph, what it means?

For first, it means that I with some tools and hands place nodes around the map and make right connections between. For second, cause it made by human, NPC's can running through whole map and don't have any behavior problems, expect some map issues and "techinnal solutions".

Also with this, NPC's can make smart moves or something that you don't expect. But sometimes it can looking quite "straight" cause in other way NPC's will stuck in this place.

Air nodes, climb nodes?

Air nodes... It will be painful, but I will try and maybe, maybe, they're appear on maps. For now, sadly, but there is no air nodes.

Climb nodes. If you will check Union City you can see some rudimentary nodes, and see how they "works" with NPC's. If I will able to make them do their job, I try to modify graphs to allow NPC's climb right up to you.

Known issues.

First, on NYC in some interiors NPC will not climb up the stairs. I have a some theories about why, but it's fact and you have to live with it. And, yep, bots can go down the stairs normally.

Second, on the Southside, VJ NPC's not jumping over road barries. It's not issue, I made this special because in other way NPC sometimes stuck in this places and I decided to not connect this nodes to main road.

Third. On the Union City, sometimes NPC's will go around main door in police department, and I don't know why. But it can happen, so prepare.

@Tim_Skull, sorry, but not now. I try to spend my time to update nodegraph files, and it will work.

Sorry if this question was already asked but does this work for the daytime versions too?

@Smelly (afraid of women) Yeah, NYC map made me node it on the edge

Geez, I can imagine how tedious this must have been to do. I've tried to node the NYC map myself but gave up some time after I ran out of nodes.
I actually removed a ton of nodes in certain places so I can place some more but it just wasn't enough
