In this short tutorial repository and accompanying video you'll learn how to find the OffMeshLinks (high level component: NavMeshLink) that a NavMeshAgent will take on their current path.
Unfortunately, Unity does not provide a way to query the NavMesh for OffMeshLinks, so it's not possible to find ALL OffMeshLinks (unless you have all OffMeshLinks as NavMeshLinks and do something like FindObjectsOfType<NavMeshLink>()).
Using this method, regardless if you're using a NavMeshLink or OffMeshLink, you can find the exact points that a NavMeshAgent will traverse an OffMeshLink between!
As always, all code from this video is available on GitHub: https://github.com/llamacademy/ai-series-part-43
As usual with the AI Series, we're using the NavMesh Components: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/NavMesh-BuildingComponents.html not the built-in navigation system.
