Is the Movement pack incompatible with BD 1.6.3 using Async loading?[SOLVED]

[mdotstrange]

Using the newest Movement Pack 1.5.5 with the newest BD 1.6.3 in a fresh project errors are thrown on tree's using the CanSeeObject task from the movement pack-

Seems its using code that isn't thread safe- error capture here-

Happens with the WithinDistance task as well as it uses NameToLayer-

Is just as simple a fix as replacing nameToLayer with a thread safe function that does the same? Going to try to fix it for my project-

I got rid of the errors by removing the "NameToLayer" code so for example on CanSee the IgnoreLayerMask line looks like this-

public LayerMask ignoreLayerMask;

Seems to work fine-

Also on CanSee I had to move this line into OnStart()

ignoreRaycastLayer = LayerMask.NameToLayer("Ignore Raycast");

Wrote a small article with example to help anyone else who wants to use Async + Movement Pack now
BTree + Async + Movement Pack

One of the downsides of aync load is that the Unity API is incompatible with calls from the non-main thread. In this case you moving the NameToLayer initialization is correct. Instead of moving to OnStart though I would move it to OnReset. This way you can still change the values. I'll do the same for the next version.

It was an easy fix and way worth it for such amazing performance gains- thanks again Justin.
