Great tutorial! I am making a game about a circle with a gun fighting against other shapes with guns for no reason and the follow worked perfectly, it really fits to my game.
This video is simple and really shows you how to quickly set up the enemy movement, which is great. However, I'm still really new to Unity, so I would like to learn about what each function specifically is and does to know how it all fits together. Otherwise I'd probably be watching these same basic tutorials over and over again throughout my entire game dev career, which isn't ideal.
You should use navmesh agent unless your game level is just an empty desert. And teach a way to implement this in a way where we don't calculate distance every frame on each enemy
Yo dude, thanks for the help. I changed your script to fit min tho, so it's not completely the same. But thanks to you, I got inspiration for a way to fix my issue, which was rotation of the enemy towards player.position.
Excellent tutorial! How would I go about making this for a 3D object? I added a Rigidbody to my enemy object and changed Rigidbody2D to Rigidbody in the code. I am getting the error: " Cannot implicitly convert type 'float' to 'UnityEngine.Quaternion' "
A RigidBody2D.rotation uses a float value, but a RigidBody.rotation (3D) needs a Quaternion value. This might help: www.cuelogic.com/blog/how-to-rotate-object-in-unity-using-quaternion
I haven't tried this yet but if I do, I think I'll eventually face an issue where the enemy will collide with other static objects instead of simply moving around them. Maybe using a NavMesh would be preferrable.
You don't need to use Vector2 at all really, you might use this code, its a bit easier I think:) using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;
You could also just define a lookDir Vector ( transform.right ) and do transform.right = player.transform.position - transform.position, so you don't need to calculate angles for rotation.
@@yuqzii I tried this but it isnt working(sorry if its a obvious mistake im a beginner) edit: so the more than symbols where backwards..... anyways i found this video that does basically the same thing th-cam.com/video/xppompv1DBg/w-d-xo.html (5:20)time
@Vizion The "this" keyword refers to the current object executing the code. Since this object inherits from monobehavior it has a method which gets a component. Although it is not required in all cases, you have to use "this" in cases where for example, in a method the argument is named the same as the variable so the compiler has no idea which one you are referring to. So you don't really have to use it in this case. I think he was just keeping what he was doing explicit.
Hi! I am having an issue with my spawner and enemy AI. every time they spawn they just go straight to the player start position. Both Player and Enemy are prefabs and the enemy doesn't seem to track player movement at all. If anyone can help or offer suggestions that would be great.
ok so I found the solution for this problem add these lines of code in your script private GameObject player; private Transform playerTransform; player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player"); playerTransform = player.GetComponent(); so what we did there is that instead of using transform component we used GameObject and then we accessed the transform component by making a private variable called playerTransform, so this way first we are getting the player game object by finding the Player tag and then we using it's transform component to let the enemy find the position of our player hope this will help someone final script looks like this using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; public class Enemy : MonoBehaviour { public float moveSpeed = 5f; private GameObject player; private Transform playerTransform; private Rigidbody2D rb; private Vector2 movement; void Start(){ player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player"); playerTransform = player.GetComponent(); rb = GetComponent(); } void Update(){ Vector3 direction = playerTransform.position - transform.position; float angle = Mathf.Atan2(direction.y, direction.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg; rb.rotation = angle; direction.Normalize(); movement = direction; } private void FixedUpdate(){ moveCharacter(movement); } void moveCharacter(Vector2 direction){ rb.MovePosition((Vector2)transform.position + (direction * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime)); } }
I'm sure you've already found a solution but I just wanted to add a quick note here because I'm having the same problem. When you turn it into a prefab it loses it's ability to track the players transform. The inspector slot for the player where you drag the player into it 1:55 for some reason can't carry the data into the prefab. I haven't found a solution myself, but in case someone else has this problem, this is what's happening.
@@thebasic5917 the //comments are what tell you what to do, best of luck mate public class enemyMove : MonoBehaviour { private Rigidbody2D rb2d; //create a separate Rigidbody2D private Rigidbody2D rb; public float moveSpeed = 2f; private Vector2 movement; void Start() { GameObject player2 = GameObject.Find("player"); //this code finds the player based on it's name in the quotes rb = this.GetComponent(); rb2d = player2.GetComponent(); //this attaches the found players RB2D to the premade rb2d } void Update() { Vector3 direction = rb2d.position - (Vector2)transform.position; //replace player.position with rb2d.position float angle = (Mathf.Atan2(direction.y, direction.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg); rb.rotation = angle; direction.Normalize(); movement = direction; } void FixedUpdate() { moveChar(movement); } void moveChar(Vector2 direction) { rb.MovePosition((Vector2)transform.position + (direction * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime)); } } This is how I fixed it, instead of creating a public transform and plugging in the player object, this removes the need to plug in an object to track by finding the object in the game and getting it's RigidBody2D component. Here is the Script API docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/GameObject.Find.html I would look over this and take in the notes/warnings in the beginning, this way of doing it probably isn't the best, however this is just the solution I came up with.
Awesome tutorial. However, Unity has been updated and will no longer allow you to drag the player from your hierarchy into the script. To get around this I added this line of code into the start method: player = GameObject.Find("Player").transform; Just make sure whatever is inside the quotes is the same as what is being used for your player object.
Hey guys I need help, when I apply the code it works perfectly fine with the enemy, but as soon as I make my enemy a prefab so I can spawn it as a wave they stop following my player. I tried to add the player to the transform player option, but for some reason it wont let me unless it is another prefab object any chance you guys can help me out.
Alternitive code: in Class write this: public Transform target; in Update write following: Vector3 relative = transform.InverseTransformPoint(target.position); float angle = Mathf.Atan2(relative.x, relative.z) * Mathf.Rad2Deg; transform.Rotate(0, 0 , angle); Drag ur player into the target field of ur inspector and it should work!
Isn't it better to use GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player"); at the start function instead of just dragging the player in the player variable? Awesome Video btw thank you!
Yes actually we use that instead in the final project download. Either work honestly, but if you're adding enemies during runtime, your code works better.
You could, but that requires more processing. Basically the "find" command, no matter by tag or name always uses more process power. So using the Drag and Drop method would take off some load from your game, which becomes vital the more finished and complicated your game becomes (no one likes a game which takes too much process power or lags).
@@chimz8057 If it is in Awake or Start that extra processing is neither here nor there and people should be told to NOT use it in Update/FixedUpdate and LateUPdate, but Awake and Start is perfectly fine.
Press Start hi, i tried finding this code but the one on your website only has the code you showed in the video. Can you please share this better code with me? Thanks you
hello from french, dear friend dev. thank you so much for tuto, it helped me a lot ^^ End credits of my game, j will mentionne you and you youtube channel. thank you again.
If your player is a GameObject, instead of player.position, type "GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player").transform.position" and have your player tagged with player in the inspector
Thanks thank thanks! thatsa is the movement methode which works for my project i need, i tried 3-4 movement methods, all of them wasnt the right vor my vision for my game. Thanks!!!!! haha i cry actually xD i dont believe
No, I’m not and it still shows it because it is a rotation you are trying to combine with a float and it doesn’t work that way. I don’t know how it works, but it doesn’t work that way.
I don't really know if I have not copy and pasted something or done something wrong but when I press the start button in unity it says "all complier errors have to be fixed before you can enter playmode"
I had a similar issue if you disable motion when it gets close enough then it won't do this. The reason for this is that the enemy is changing the angle to angle to angle + 180 constantly when it is so close to 0. You could also disable angle changing when it gets close enough/ destroy the player when the enemy is close enough
Do you have any way to make this code work for a side scroller instead of a top down game, because whenever I jump in my game the character flies and follows the character, I don’t want it to do that
I had this problem as well. I don't have a solution but I know why it's happening. My guess is you made the enemy in to a prefab, it could no longer track your player so you made a prefab of your player then had the enemy track your player prefab? Problem with that is that the enemy prefab only knows the initial position of the player prefab, and not the current position of the actual player, so the enemy is just going to go towards that position. I reckon this is what you did because this is the thought process I had when trying to fix the enemy prefab problem.
What do you think about my short script? Vector3 direction = player.position - transform.position; transform.position += direction * speed * Time.deltaTime; transform.right = direction;
Don't use the player prefab in the assets , insead in the Start funtion assign the player in the scene to your script , player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player"); note that you have to tag your player in the editor with the "Player tag" (click the player in the scene , left top corner of the editor)

Vector3 direction;

Do you have any way to make this code work for a side scroller instead of a top down game, because whenever I jump in my game the character flies and follows the character, I don’t want it to do that
i dont know what happened but now the enemy moves to the place i start but then just stops there
YES MY EXACT PROBLEM PLEASE HELP
I had this problem as well. I don't have a solution but I know why it's happening. My guess is you made the enemy in to a prefab, it could no longer track your player so you made a prefab of your player then had the enemy track your player prefab? Problem with that is that the enemy prefab only knows the initial position of the player prefab, and not the current position of the actual player, so the enemy is just going to go towards that position.
I reckon this is what you did because this is the thought process I had when trying to fix the enemy prefab problem.
This is not working for me... Is it because am not using the top down method
2 minutes ago, an AI helper tool suggested me this video. Dude...
Nice vid
I'm applying this to 3D, it works, however, now that i added the follow the gameobject is not rotating anymore
Is there anyway this can work in 2d that's not top down??
What do you think about my short script?
Vector3 direction = player.position - transform.position;
transform.position += direction * speed * Time.deltaTime;
transform.right = direction;
you are the best
@@bonxd Thanks :)
thanks dude i love u
ok so i have a spawning script and whenever they spawn they go to the start spot, not the player
Don't use the player prefab in the assets ,
insead in the Start funtion assign the player in the scene to your script ,
player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player");
note that you have to tag your player in the editor with the "Player tag" (click the player in the scene , left top corner of the editor)
@@mohammadaymanebensaid7185 that doesnt work for me, this error pops up, "Cannot implicitly convert type 'UnityEngine.GameObject' to 'UnityEngine.Transform' [Assembly-CSharp]csharp(CS002)". what am i doing wrong?
@@ethanh.2622 write in Start function: player = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player").GetComponent();
Great video but why do you use a Vector3 in a 2d game? Couldnt you just use the Vector2?
How can I make the enemy chase the main character but avoiding walls? Currently I can do it but he doesn't detect the shorter way to reach the main character, he stays blocked at the other side of the wall. Thanks in advance
I keep getting an error that say "The name 'direction' does not exist in the current context" when Im trying to set my game object to look at the player
You need to make the Vector3 direction
HOW CAN I MAKE ENEMY FOLLOW ONLY PLAYER'S ON BUTTON DOWN POSITION?
isnt it redundant to use Time.deltatime if you are gonna use it in fixed Update?
the distance is not updating for some reason, just the initial distance is displayed repeatedly in the Debug Log?
It seems to just be using centre(0,0) instead of the location of the player object???
