Ai Help

Does anyone have any codes that can make an enemy follow a movie clip and while avoiding other movie clips like walls at the same time?

Yes, some of us have the code to do that. No, no one will give it to you. You have to figure that out for yourself; but first get more experienced with programming before you tackle something like AI.

Well actually i know how to program good. If all you are to do is criticize me and not help, its probably better if you dont reply at all MSGhero

Programming is also planning and problem-solving, not just typing words and copying what other people have already done. It's not so simple as copying and pasting code anyway; the code is oftentimes specific to your game only.

I know but, im not asking to copy people, I just need some suggestions on how to avoid the walls.
I already got down how to follow the movie clip i just need help on avoiding walls

depends on what you're using to follow another MovieClip. There's several ways I can think of off the top of my head.

Yeah, there's no easy solution for this, it depends a lot on what exactly your games is like and what you expect from your enemies, AI is a field of study, it's not something that can just be explained, I'd suggest you do some research.

Thanks for the suggestions. :)

I've got some C++ code with wall avoidance, if you're able you can convert it to .as3? Shotty a copy of that script tho.

I can try to convert it. Thanks :)
