A little big thing

So, good afternoon.  No development today,  or at least not until the evening.  I do have things to talk about though, as I have been busy working on the movement mechanics in Holocene and there are some problems.

When a unit is selected and the player right clicks somewhere,  the unit should go there and that works for parts on the terrain where nothing already is. When there is a unit, it works too and the game knows where to stop to prevent two units to fight for the position to stand on.

The problem is when the unit wants to move to a stationary object like a resource or a building. The navmesh understands that the unit cannot just go there, so we'll have to find a place where it can go. Unity has these methods to find out the edge of a collider and places on the navmesh, but they do not yet give me what I need.  When I send a unit to an object,  it just stands next to the object on one place, no matter which is closest.

I'm not sure how the game decides that specific spot, but it's not what I want.  That is because it does not decide which place is closest to the unit. I was hoping the methode for finding the edge of a collider would fix that, but they don't.  I'm confident I will find a way, but I have not yet.

This is one of those "little big points". You might expect it to be a small minor thing to find the point where to go, but after a couple of days,  you realise, maybe not so much...
