Object x gets close to active xx, do xxx.

Hi.

I have made a simple example for you.

It will check the distance between the player and the NPC, if it is lower than 100 pixels it will set the Alterable Value of the NPC named "Followmode" to 1.

If the Alterable Value "Followmode" of the NPC object is 1, and the distance between the player and the NPC is greater than 32 pixels, it will start the "Bouncy ball movement" and "look at the player" this will let the NPC follow the player.

If the distance is below 32 pixes it will stop so it won't overlap the player.

If you want this to work for multiple Enemies you aught 'put the distance calculation into the NPCs AlterableValue', and then compair 'directly' to this AlterbleValue when checking the distance.

Reason this works for multiple Enemies:

- Say you have multiple Object Instances
- When creating an Event and adding a Condition that is 'directly related'* to the Object, Fusion will automatically 'Select' the Instances complying with the Condition/s and also apply the relevant 'Actions' only to the selected Instances complying with the Condition/s.
- The distance calculation in the example is directly relatedto the 'Special Object' ( cointaining special functions, in this case a function calculating distance between 2 Objects ) and not the actaull Object we are working with, and thus the Instance selection explained above does not apply or take place ( something else happens instead, but i dont want to get into that right now )

OK, ill get into it.
As the Condition in this case ( as per the example above by Decal ) is NOT directly related to the Object, the Event ony checks if the 'last created' Object Instance complies with the Condition/s and furthermore Applies the Events Actions to ALL Object Instances if the Event is true.

* If you create a new Condition and right click on an Object, any of theese conditions are 'directly related Conditions' to that Object

King_Cool is right.
In order for this to work with multiple instances of the same NPC object, the distance of the player must be set in the Alterable Value of the NPC object and then check that Alterable value when doing distance comparison.

Have a look at an updated example for use with several instances of the same NPC object.
