Hello everyone, I have a problem with line of sight. You see, I am trying to make an RPG, but the problem is kinda that when I get close to the trees I become able to see a bit trough them. I could fix that with just adding more trees behind that one, but that would require lot of patience, time and it will make bigger size of the map. (map size is already big) So I was thinking, if someone could help me how to ''not to see trough trees''. I made pictures that might help you to solve my problem and see what I'm talking about. So can that be fixed inside Object Editor and without using any triggers (I am horrible with triggering)

''notice the purple'' means: Pathing - Ground (in WE, purple is supposed to be where you can't walk on, something like that... lol)

+rep to those who help! Tell me if you don't understand this!

Hm, too bad you don't know what's the name
go to layers than doodads and there click at pathink blockers and there choose line of sight blocker and put this near the trees it should help
yea, I know for that, pathing blockers and line of sight, I might use that...

EDIT: it's solved now, thank you both
