  I have been playing around with resource collecting ai, check out the following example.

  https://www.dropbox.com/s/ejo9hek1eucof ... .capx?dl=0

  The men will find a path to the nearest wood and base but they don't take the walls into account and find the nearest based on a straight line. Is there a simple way to the calculate the length of a path for each target then pick the shortest before moving along it?

  Hi all,

  I have been playing around with an enemy wave system and have come up with the following;

  dropbox.com/s/u2841vlyjd3spak/enemywavestest.capx

  It's not finished yet but, should be pretty easy to add boss waves and such later on.

  Would this be a good way to handle enemy waves? Open to improvements.

  Thanks,

  Dave

  Thanks you steered me in the right direction. Not sure how well it will perform with a ton of goodies and baddies, will have to do some stress testing.

  I actually have a new problem now, I'm trying to recreate a kinda plants vs zombies mechanic.

  Check out this capx;

  dropbox.com/s/l5gvplui395vytq/foreachtest2.capx

  Each goodie is firing independently from each other on the Y thanks to Rampack but, still at the same time on the X. I have a check for X distance which does work but, for all goodies on the X. I'm pretty sure it's something to do with starting the timer within the baddies foreach loop, maybe I need a little break my head is hurting :)

  Arh, they still don't seem to be firing independently, if I give the baddies drag&drop behaviour and move a baddie in and out of Y range the goodies wait and fire all at the same time.

  I have the following capx

  dropbox.com/s/t8scqoqql2g9qm9/instancepicking.capx

  I'm trying to get the goodies to fire independently from each other.

  I need the goodies to detect the baddies only when a baddie is on the same Y position as the goodie. I tried this using; abs(goodie.Y-baddieY) < 2000 which seems to work but, whenever any baddie is on the same Y as a goodie all the goodies fire. The bottom baddie is slightly off the Y of the goodie but, the goodie still fires.

  Do I need to foreach the baddies as well?

  Thanks in advance.

  Dave

  Sorry if I sounded ungrateful, I really do appreciate any help and only will ask for it if I have spent a ton of time trying to figure it out myself first.

  I will keep plugging at it, thanks for the tips.
