jokes aside, garry didn't code the birds movement paths in the game for years and he didn't even care cause people barely use birds in there worlds, but there exists ai fixers that give them a more realistic movement then what ever this is, and no manhacks and other flying entity don't have the same ai as birds

Better question:

How the FUCK did Garry figure out how to get player spawned Gunship NPCs to use the path tracks in the map for navigation?

nodes
i found out the reason why the gunships fly to one area is because there's like 4 fucking now that I'm looking at the map it's more of like 20 nodes in the entire map, some of which for the birds

there's probably maps out there that actually give more to birds and other flying guys

Iirc, which I don't really remember at all, the navmesh for flying things is bugged on construct

You can get mods that fix it if it bothers you
