Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Hello all Clickers,
I have created a Platform Enemy AI multi-widget that makes enemies chase you in a platformer. They even follow you up platforms. This is sort of a basic version of the Super Smash brother AI.
This is a multi-widget and some of the objects require values, so if you want to put this in your game then make sure the specified objects are able to use these values.
The object is fully commented so it'll be easier for you to understand.
You need the following Objects installed on MMF or TGF:
[color:#FF0000] - Advanced Direction Object[/color]
If you don't have it then click Here to download it from Neatwares Extension List.
I'd like to thank MechaBrowser for some of the enemy movement and Nifflas for helping me with the Id's and Loops :)
[color:#3333FF]This widget IS a contest entry for the Clickteam Wild Widget Contest. [/color]
Feel free to use this in your game as long as I get credit
Enjoy! :D :)

Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
It's not bad, the different states such as chasing and neutral are good however I think the enemy's actual movement is a bit glitchy. The jumps don't look natural and they jitter around a bit too much.
Keep working on it though.
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Agreed, it'll be very useful once all the bugs are fixed, but it's not really solid enough to use in a game yet.
Eg. enemies can hover in mid air if you stand under the gap between two platforms.

Interesting! Looking cool!
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Hey, this is pretty cool.
The jumps do look a bit unnatural, but it's a great example.
EDIT: easy challenge. Get the AIs to stay on the top platform while you're on the ground.
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Thanks for the nice comments guys! :D
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
one of the best ai tutorials, but... the jump just kills it...
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
YES!
this is exactly what I needed, thanks!
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Judging from the comments, you are probably doing something with the jump that pushes the player back down after cresting. Not good. Unless you didn't. I can't check for a week till I get my laptop here next friday.
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Is there anyway that this can be combined with the Platform Movement Object?
Frankly, the built-in platformer movement isn't very great.
I know you're trying to make a independent widget, but this would be very helpful.
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
Sure, I'll do it when I have my time :]
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
What about DavidN's custom platform movement?
Re: Platformer AI, Multi-Widget
I found this very useful! Currently using it in my game. Though in some situations, if a cieling is above an enemy, it will go through it sometimes. Might wanna check that out. Sorry if this is a dead post.
