[NodeCanvas] Subtrees update interval

[leanon00Participant]

Hello!
It seems that the sub trees are ticked at a lower rate when the main behaviour tree update interval is not 0. In my case 0.1.

well… after some tests it seems that the tick rate is ok.. only the runtime is not updated properly. Will update the same when you tick a behaviour tree manually.
But I found another problem playing with the “Wait” action: If the update interval is not 0, the wait time needs to be multiplied with the update interval value so it will reflect the actual seconds. -> ActionTask.elapsedTime is not updated properly??

Soo.. ActionTask.elapsedTime should be DateTime.now – startTime?

You can test it with

Hello there,

The “Update Interval” parameter, sets how often the Behaviour Tree updates. So an Update Interval of “3”, will only update the Behaviour Tree once every 3 seconds, therefore if you have a Wait action task that waits for 1 second, it will not matter since the Behaviour Tree (and thus the Wait action task) will only be updated and return its Status only once every 3 seconds.

Is your goal to update the graph slower? If so, I can add an option for that like “Update Speed”, but once again, “Update Interval” is simply how often the graph updated rather than how fast.

Please let me know if that makes sense 🙂
Thanks.
