Enemy Platform

Could someone help me out, by telling me how to make an Enemy shoot only if the player is at, lets say x distance away from it? [Platformer Game]

Please if possible if you could make an attached file for it.

Thank you,

kind regards,

For each enemy

system compare two values : distance(enemy.x,enemy.y,player.x,enemy.y) < 100

• enemy shoot

for the secound one is it

distance(enemy.x,enemy.y,player.x,player.y or enemy.y??

thanks for the reply... will just try it out

I used enemy.y because I thought you only wanted the horizontal distance (x)

If you use player.y it will be like a circle arond the enemy.

ok ... so when I went to system ccompare two values .... it asks for the first one than compare than secound value...

So for the first one I write:   enemy.xenemy.y

less or equal

for the second one I write:     player.x,enemy.y

yup for horizontal

thanks :)

no you write in the first one:

distance(enemy.x,enemy.y,player.x,enemy.y)

and in the second one the number of pixels distance you'd like.

Thank you very much ... sorry for acting like a noob ... I am bad at programming :( trying my best to learn
