# Path Traverse linear, Bezier and spline paths with global and per-segment easing. [Feature status and language/platform compatibility](https://rustic-game-engine.pages.dev/markdown/reference/compatibility.md) Choose an API to see its signature, parameters, examples and behavior. ## APIs - [Path.create()](https://rustic-game-engine.pages.dev/markdown/api/path/create.md) - [Path.follow()](https://rustic-game-engine.pages.dev/markdown/api/path/follow.md) ## Module guide ## Setup and language support These engine-owned services work in Lua 5.4, Luau, JavaScript, Python, C, C++, C#, Java, PHP, and HTML inline JavaScript. Follow [Use gameplay actions](https://rustic-game-engine.pages.dev/markdown/guides/gameplay-actions.md) to create and attach a script, install external toolchains, and choose the correct language binding. PHP and HTML scripts belong under `ui/`; CSS alone runs no gameplay code. The Calls section uses JavaScript signatures. The function examples below include native syntax for all ten script types, including SDK-specific alternatives and limitations. Attach a JavaScript Object Component script to the specified target and press **Play**. Globals are supplied by the engine. Schedule actions from `Start` or a callback, rather than at script top level. Native languages use typed options and their own builder conventions; see the guide's language bindings. ## Parameters Points are vectors or {point, easing} entries. Kind is Linear, Bezier, CubicBezier, CatmullRom or Spline. Follow options require exactly one of duration or speed, with optional easing, loop, pingPong and orientToPath. ## Return and timing Create returns reusable path data. Follow returns an operation handle advanced by the shared scheduler. ## Behavior and limitations - An anchored Part traverses the local path in eight seconds, reverses at its end and repeats, facing its direction of travel. - Bezier supports 2–32 control points; CubicBezier requires four. Other paths support 2–4096 points. Spline uses uniform Catmull-Rom. - Global and segment easing change traversal, not curve geometry. Starting-point easing applies to the following segment; Bezier uses its first point for the single span. - Speed uses approximate arc length. Looping repeats a span; a geometrically closed loop needs matching endpoints. OrientToPath faces local -Z along the tangent. - C path storage requires Path.destroy after use; the scheduled action owns its path data. - Check script attachment, enabled state and the Console when an operation fails. Asynchronous errors also appear in operation state. Callback exceptions disable the owner and clean up its actions. - Owner destruction, disable, successful reload or Stop cleans up owned actions and subscriptions. Failed reload retains the previous behavior's operations. See [Operation handles](https://rustic-game-engine.pages.dev/markdown/api/operation-handles.md) for controls and lifetime details.
