Unity Navmesh agent patrol and chase player script issues.
I just began scripting for the first time and am completely stuck with trying to convert this script from a simple patrol script to a script where the enemy will leave the patrol and chase the player the second the player comes into his view. Once I figure this all out I can start working on making attack scripts and game state changes.
If anyone can tell me how they would do it or just send me a tutorial, I'd appreciate it. I have seen multiple patrol tutorials but combining the chase script I have with the ray and the patrol script seems to just keep failing. I have worked a few days on this problem but am running out of time and have to work on other parts of the assignment as well.
