Question by EliteHedgehog56 · Sep 26, 2017 at 12:52 AM · aienemy

enemy doesn't follow the player

I'm using a simple enemy ai that makes the enemy follow the player, I am wanting to spawn my enemies one after the other which I have done, but for some reason the enemy only follows the player if both the enemy and the player are in the scene, in other words when I asiign the player as the target in the assets folder when both prefabs are in the assets folder the enemy only moves to the players start potition, is there anyway I can fix this script to accomindate my enemy spawners

var Player : Transform; var MoveSpeed = 4; var MaxDist = 10; var MinDist = 5;

function Start () {

}

function Update () { transform.LookAt(Player);

  if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position,Player.position) >= MinDist){
  
       transform.position += transform.forward*MoveSpeed*Time.deltaTime;
 
        
        
       if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position,Player.position) <= MaxDist)
           {
              //Here Call any function U want Like Shoot at here or something
 } 
 
 }

}

try this script

 var Player : Transform;
  var MoveSpeed = 4; 
 var MaxDist = 10; 
 var MinDist = 5;
 
 function Start(){
        target = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").transform; 
   }
 function Update () {
 
 transform.LookAt(Player);
 if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position,Player.position) >= MinDist){
   
        transform.position += transform.forward*MoveSpeed*Time.deltaTime;
  
         
         
        if(Vector3.Distance(transform.position,Player.position) <= MaxDist)
            {
               //Here Call any function U want Like Shoot at here or something
  } 
 }

If you assign the player as a prefab to your script, the target is only the position of the prefab. And the prefab's position does not change when your gameobject changes position. You should assign the transform of the gameobject to "target", not of the prefab. If you don't have the player created at start, you can find the target with

target = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").transform;

if you have tagged it as "Player".
