Question by WesterlyCarrot9 · Mar 12, 2013 at 03:43 AM · c#playerenemydistanceclicktomove

How to make player stop a certain distance away from enemy?

Ok so i use this script here (http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Click_To_Move_C) to move my player. It is a clicktomove one. Is there a way to edit it so that when he gets at a certain distance away from the enemy, he stops?(and then maybe start attacking). Thanks!

 if (unitIsMoving)
 {
 
   float yourDistance = Vector3.Distance (firstVector, secondVector);
     
     if (yourDistance <= x)
     {
        KillStuff();
     }

It checks the distance between two GameObject positions and returns a float. Or really any two Vector3s.

I haven't looked at that script, but the first line of my pseudocode is basically what would work. Just throw it in an update.

This is the script i use. I get so many errors unfortunately :( Thanks for posting something anyway.

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

public class moveOn$$anonymous$$ouseClick : $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour { private Transform myTransform; // this transform private Vector3 destinationPosition; // The destination Point private float destinationDistance; // The distance between myTransform and destinationPosition

 public float moveSpeed;                        // The Speed the character will move
 
 
 
 void Start () {
     myTransform = transform;                            // sets myTransform to this GameObject.transform
     destinationPosition = myTransform.position;            // prevents myTransform reset
 }
 
 void Update () {
 
     // keep track of the distance between this gameObject and destinationPosition
     destinationDistance = Vector3.Distance(destinationPosition, myTransform.position);
 
     if(destinationDistance < .5f){        // To prevent shakin behavior when near destination
         moveSpeed = 0;
     }
     else if(destinationDistance > .5f){            // To Reset Speed to default
         moveSpeed = 3;
     }
 
 
     // $$anonymous$$oves the Player if the Left $$anonymous$$ouse Button was clicked
     if (Input.Get$$anonymous$$ouseButtonDown(0)&& GUIUtility.hotControl ==0) {
 
         Plane playerPlane = new Plane(Vector3.up, myTransform.position);
         Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
         float hitdist = 0.0f;
 
         if (playerPlane.Raycast(ray, out hitdist)) {
             Vector3 targetPoint = ray.GetPoint(hitdist);
             destinationPosition = ray.GetPoint(hitdist);
             Quaternion targetRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(targetPoint - transform.position);
             myTransform.rotation = targetRotation;
         }
     }
 
     // $$anonymous$$oves the player if the mouse button is hold down
     else if (Input.Get$$anonymous$$ouseButton(0)&& GUIUtility.hotControl ==0) {
 
         Plane playerPlane = new Plane(Vector3.up, myTransform.position);
         Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
         float hitdist = 0.0f;
 
         if (playerPlane.Raycast(ray, out hitdist)) {
             Vector3 targetPoint = ray.GetPoint(hitdist);
             destinationPosition = ray.GetPoint(hitdist);
             Quaternion targetRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(targetPoint - transform.position);
             myTransform.rotation = targetRotation;
         }
     //    myTransform.position = Vector3.$$anonymous$$oveTowards(myTransform.position, destinationPosition, moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
     }
 
     // To prevent code from running if not needed
     if(destinationDistance > .5f){
         myTransform.position = Vector3.$$anonymous$$oveTowards(myTransform.position, destinationPosition, moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
     }
 }

}
