Hello everyone. This is not a thread that has not been done before, but I dont quite understand the answers given to the last one for I am an extremely new user to fusion 2.5 and was looking for some help. I have enemies that I would like to be able to see me, and fire at me. If you need more details on my situation please feel free to ask. Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me out. Even if you don't help thank you for stopping by. :)
Here is an example, in this example fusion selects at random enemy and shoots an object to your character
enemy_shoots_at_player.mfa
Yep, Looked at your example and was able to port it over to my game. I should have added this to my question but I guess I didnt have it on my mind at the time, how do I make it so that people dont shoot me if they cant see me? Like through an obstacle for instance. Thanks for your help though!
You may find various examples for "line of sight"
digging deep in this thread:

good luck
Yeah, thanks for the link, I checked it all out and I think I found the answer I found the little test game called BuiltInLoS and I played around with it, showing that it was just like said, simple but effective. The only problem I have is that I am not quite sure how to implement that into my current game. Being new to the entire program it is hard for me to put what somebody else had in to what I have, the last problem I had was simpler I think. If you cannot help me I completly understand because you dealt with basically the exact problem in another thread, and I will just do more hunting around the program and that thread to see if I can salvage any more information, but anything you might want to tell me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time and have a great day!
Yes, applying pre-cooked solutions to your own game can be distressful at first
The solution I would suggest (from that thread) is this:

Unfortunately the "builtinLos" method, while simpler and shorter to code, shows some buggy behaviour
(its event logic appears to be flawless, maybe it has broken due to some bugs in latest versions of Fusion?),
while the one above with overlapping line seems stable.
Since I don't know exactly what's going on in your game, I would find difficult being more specific...
you could try examining the code and finding out what you don't understand, ask here, so others may help and explain?
If you're asking for a simpler "line of sight" method, so that you can practice,
you could try by making your enemies shoot invisible "bullets" at maximum speed in multiple directions at any given time (i.e. every 1 second),
when bullet hits player (meaning that the enemy has an open line of sight) make him shoot the "real" bullet towards the player.
It's less precise but can be a start.
Well, first make an active object, then make it so that every once it makes an object visible (which is what he shoots, projectiles let's say) and then make it so that it follows the object (the player)
