[AI] Individual AI per entity

Is there a way to possibly add logic to a single enemy instance and have them all act independently?

This is a continuation of the following open questions:

I can't get the enemySprite to act differently per sprite. They all react the same way.

Here is the logic

Well, all of enemies act in the same way as long as they use similar actions.

So, you can create 2 types of enemies and define different conditions and actions for them, or you can define different actions for the enemy and then set the enemy to randomly choose one of the actions?

Thanks Gamer.

As an added note you can play the game with the updated logic here:

I've actually updated the logic using something i saw here:

Here is the updated logic. It's somewhat working now.

You'll need to at 'for each enemySprite' loop and put your actions inside that. Then it will evaluate the results for each individual enemy, right now it's handling them as 'groups' and it probably does not work quite as you'd want it to :)

I'd suggest using Families. Add Enemy family, and insert sprites representing an Enemy. Then define the unified Enemy action and conditions for the family. If you'd like to modify one of the family member, just add a different action and condition to it. So now you have a unified behavior and also a unique one.

I'm not sure how to implement Families in the Free Edition. However I did start using the "For Each"

Any assistance with optimizing the code would be greatly appreciated.
