Platform Enemy - Charge AI

I am trying to modify the platform AI example (found here: http://www.castles-of-britain.com/mmfexamples-o.htm) by Sketchy/Muddymole to implement an attack type that basically charges at the player when in range. However I can't seem to get there.

Basically I want the enemy to pause briefly when the player is in range and then charge at a faster pace until it either reaches an obstacle or the edge of a platform. I have tried changing the animation sequence and also tried adding a seperate animation direction.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated!

I am using Clickteam Fusion 2.5+

Sorry, I tried to help yet I can’t seem to get a hold of the select object extension that's compatible with the current build. Without it I can't open your mfa.

Edit: found the latest version Attachment 29844

To be honest the mfa doesn't make much sense to me because the enemy only seems to squash flat when the player touches it; nothing seems to be working properly.

Yes, I know, it's not available within the extension manager. I couldn't find a way to do it without that extension.

Could you get it working at all? If not perhaps it's not the best example to be working from.

I think I used version 10 https://community.clickteam.com/threads/56836-Select-Object.

Edit: the squash flat part is the collison detectors showing up, which isn't supposed to happen.

Edit2: I've fixed some parts of it, however can't seem to figure out how to get the enemy to stop before reaching animation frame 7, as the direction is determined by xVel.

See new example: Attachment 29845

If you set the xvel to zero - it triggers the collision animation. I don't think this was designed to have the enemy stop.

Hmm, so it would seem. I might try adding a flag that when on, prevents the xvel from being added to xpos. Then temporarily storing the xvel to another value to determine the enemy's direction.

By the way, does anyone know what happened to Muddymole's website? It used to be http://sketchy.co.nf

All good, managed to get it all working how I wanted! Thanks for the help!

I haven't done any "kliking" in a very long time, so haven't maintained the website either. I'm not even certain which web host I was using, but I think it might have been 110mb.com, who appear to have gone out of business. If anyone wants any of the old examples, they're probably all still in my onedrive account, here:
