HintNode Loader

Description
this addon is add tow cvars.
sv_enable_init_hint_hook 0/1
sv_enable_hint_json_load 0/1
default was disabled.

Enabling both will create an ai_hint Entity from json file.
The search order for json files is:
data/map_hints/<map_name>.json
data_static/map_hints/<map_name>.json
maps/graphs/<map_name>.hint.json

If you want map hints, use DumpHint Addon and paste to maps/graphs/<map_name>.hint.json.

Sorry, because nodegraph_loader uses binary modules (native code), it cannot be distributed through the workshop.

Damn i was using hintnode instead of ground node so that's why it wasn't working. Thanks man, by the way do you plan to release the reload ai nodes at game addon? I see it on one of your videos, you type console command and reload nodes

It's already 1 but thanks for the video i'll watch it and try again

Make sure that "sv_enable_init_hint_hook" and "sv_enable_hint_json_load" are set to 1 (they are set to 0 by default).

I uploaded an explanatory video for Nodegraph Editor+.

@Hosterle
The reason jump overrides only work in a downward direction is due to the Source engine.
This can be verified in the Source SDK's C++ code.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013/blob/39f6dde8fbc238727c020d13b05ecadd31bda4c0/src/game/server/ai_pathfinder.cpp#L644

To enable jumping for all entities, use this command:
lua_run hook.Add("OnEntityCreated", "Add CAP_MOVE_JUMP", function(e) if e:IsNPC() then timer.Simple(0, function() e:CapabilitiesAdd(CAP_MOVE_JUMP) end) end end)

However, while it is probably possible to change the maximum jump distance for scripted entities, I don't think you can change the maximum jump distance for NPCs, such as zombies in hl2, which are hard-coded in c++.
Also some NPCs behave strangely with this command (e.g. npc_rollermine can't jump upwards so it keeps rolling into the wall).

The override jump permissions hint only allows jumping down. How do I make NPCs jump up too?
