enemy not spotting player?
hi! i am having issues with my enemy on stealth. the player is patrolling, but when i trigger something it does not recognize me. any suggestions as to what the problem could be , and if possible, get back to me? many thanks.
using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;
public class EnemyAI : MonoBehaviour { public float patrolSpeed = 3f; public float chaseSpeed = 7f; public float chaseWaitTime =0.3f; public float patrolWaitTime = 0.5f; public Transform[]patrolWayPoints; //this determines the speed of the enemy guard as well as the waypoints, and the time taken for the guard to wait. //as these are public floats, they can be edited to go fast or slow or to wait for a longer or shorter amount of time. private EnemySight enemySight; private NavMeshAgent nav; private Transform player; private PlayerHealth playerHealth; private LastPlayerSighting lastPlayerSighting; private float chaseTimer; private float patrolTimer; private int wayPointIndex; //as well as the public variables, we need some private variables to call on other scripts. void awake() { enemySight = GetComponent(); nav = GetComponent(); player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag(Tags.player).transform; playerHealth = player.GetComponent(); lastPlayerSighting = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag(Tags.gameController).GetComponent();
//to start off with , it is important that the other scripts are called upon . this is done with the get component function.
}
void Update()
{
if (enemySight.playerInSight && playerHealth.health > 0f)
{
Shooting ();
}
else if (enemySight.personalLastSighting != lastPlayerSighting.resetPosition && playerHealth.health > 0f)
{
Chasing ();
}
else
Patrolling();
//the update function contains loops for if the enemy is shooting the player, chasing the player or patrolling
}
void Shooting()
{
nav.Stop();
//if the enemy guard is shooting , it would need to stop
}
void Chasing()
{
Vector3 sightingDeltaPos = enemySight.personalLastSighting - transform.position;
if(sightingDeltaPos.sqrMagnitude > 4f)
nav.destination = enemySight.personalLastSighting;
//for the chasing we would need the sightingDeltaPos function
nav.speed = chaseSpeed;
if(nav.remainingDistance < nav.stoppingDistance)
{
chaseTimer += Time.deltaTime;
if(chaseTimer >= chaseWaitTime)
{
lastPlayerSighting.position = lastPlayerSighting.resetPosition;
enemySight.personalLastSighting = lastPlayerSighting.resetPosition;
chaseTimer = 0f;
// if the player is spotted, the guard will go into chase mode
}
}
else
chaseTimer = 0f;
// if the player is being chased then the chase timer is reset
}
void Patrolling()
{
nav.speed = patrolSpeed;
if(nav.destination == lastPlayerSighting.resetPosition || nav.remainingDistance < nav.stoppingDistance)
{
patrolTimer += Time.deltaTime;
if(patrolTimer >= patrolWaitTime)
{
if (wayPointIndex == patrolWayPoints.Length - 1)
wayPointIndex = 0;
else
wayPointIndex++;
patrolTimer = 0;
}
}
else
patrolTimer = 0;
nav.destination = patrolWayPoints[wayPointIndex].position;
//these perameters will activate when the guard is patrolling , which is when the player is not in sight.
}
}
