Enemy Follow Help

Okay so im wondering how i can make it so that when the enemy becomes visible it will start running at my character
btw its a platformer game

Well without looking at your game, I have done this lots of times.

-You could make an active object, a big circle, and always attach it to the enemy, and when the player is under the circle [colliding/overlapping] it, then look in direction of player and start movement.
-Or you could use an expression, such as IF X.pos of player is Greater than X.pos of Enemy set direction of enemy to ->
and IF X.pos of player is Lower than X.pos of Enemy set dirction of enemy to <-
-Then there are yet still other ways to do it, like detecting the distance from the player, etc...

thanks it worked great
just one last question though
is there anyway that the enemy could actually follow the character
e.g. i jump over him he would turn around and keep chasing me

I believe 00J just told you that

I can do it for you if you want and upload the new example?
