Description of the issue:

Hello! I’m currently having issues learning about the Lightship api for developing a project. I’ve looked at the official documentation available and it seems to be missing details about some of the newest functions/features that are available with this package. Is there a more comprehensive release documentation for scripting and development?

Thank you for any information!

Hi Keenan,

Thanks for reaching out. At the moment the only spot for documentation is our official documentation website: Welcome to Niantic Spatial SDK | Niantic Spatial Platform

May I know which features you’re referring to that don’t appear to have enough documentation?

Well, the official documentation lacks clear descriptions of all the functions that are used in on certain features. When looking at the LightshipNavMesh class in the documentation, there are public functions that are shown in the code that have no description. Additionally, the official guides are simplistic and lack details related to the implementation and just assume that one is aware of certain issues. When looking at the guide related to NavMeshing, there is a single mention of removing the box collider. There is not an explanation that the Lighthship NavMesh doesn’t blend well with unity physics which is something worth mentioning when using this for development.
