How To Make AI shoot?

[HarryM]

Hi.I want to make a stationary character I have shoot at my player about every one or two seconds. If this laser hits I would like the frame to restart. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Here's Sketchy's example on 360 degree shooting. It includes an AI example.

Here's a simple way of doing it;

I usually have a make an alterable value like;

Alterable Value A < 60: Add 1 to Alterable Value A
Alterable Value A > 60: Shoot and Set Alterable Value A to 0

Why 60? Fusion has a cap to 60 FPS per default so when Fusion reaches 60 frames a second has passed. I would also name the value something like "FireRate" so it's easier to remember what it's for.
