@@klarnorbert What I've found in a lot of the tutorials on TH-cam is the skeleton of the mechanic a developer wants to create.

So yes, this isn't the best, but it is a damn good starting place for those who don't know how to do it. - And to anyone reading this, don't forget to stress critical thinking and creative problem solving.

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.
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
You helped me a year later far more than you can know. I thank you. I don't know coding really but im trying to release a game by next week and you are part of the reason I'll be able to do that.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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!
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"
@@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
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
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.
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)); } }
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;
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.
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.

What do you think about my short script? Vector3 direction = player.position - transform.position; transform.position += direction * speed * Time.deltaTime; transform.right = direction;
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 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
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 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
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
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
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.

I reckon this is what you did because this is the thought process I had when trying to fix the enemy prefab problem.
My enemy follows me when I move but he just copies whatever I do and when I stop he stops…how do I fix this?
thank you very mutch, cool tutorial
What does it mean if my player disappears after I add it to the inspector area?

How do you do this if your game is a side scroller
The concept is the same :)
Press Start thanks
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
How can we have this same follow movement but only if the player is close enough to the enemy? :o
How do I make it so it searches for a tag instead of the transform?
why cant you make it so the enemy doesnt instantly rotate to the player?
So if you are still reading this, I wonder, why you use a 3D vector instead of a 2D one?
