{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure that objects with AI Perception Source have layer that is included in [AI Perception Blackboard](/ai-tree/perception-system/useful-components/ai-perception-blackboard.md) culling layer layermask. Otherwise perception source won't be "visible" to AI agents tht are looking for it.
