I like you!

Nah you’re awesome for taking the time out to give feedback. And positive feedback at that. Cheers my friend, it’s people like you that keep me going

Geee thanks :)

Thank you!

calm down captain caps lock

Shoot me an email lets talk

Add some obstacles between the player and the enemy, and this method breaks.

@@klarnorbert i guess

@@klarnorbert A* is fairly easy to learn, and works great if you have obstacles

@@klarnorbert What I've found in a lot of the tutorials on RU-vid is the skeleton of the mechanic a developer wants to create. Like I used this and it didn't work exactly like I needed it to, so I iterated on it. 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. Don't take this tutorial as the end result but as the beginning theory for the end result. If it doesn't behave like you want to, iterate on it or find work arounds. You. Are. The. Developer. - And don't think I'm some great programmer looking down, I know it's hard, I've been programming for a collective two weeks so far. Just have the confidence to iterate on these skeletons of mechanics.

@@gone192 Spot on :)

just search up tutorials for the things you find hard

Will do!

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; public class NewFollower : MonoBehaviour { [SerializeField] Transform target; float moveSpeed = 4f; Rigidbody2D rb; Vector3 direction; void Start() { rb = GetComponent(); } void Update() { direction = target.position - transform.position; float angle = Mathf.Atan2(direction.y, direction.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg; rb.rotation = angle; } private void FixedUpdate() { Move(); } void Move(){ rb.MovePosition(transform.position + (direction.normalized * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime)); } }

thanks!!

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.

i love you

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

Nice info thanks im from indonesia

simply use this code rb.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f,angle,0f);

@@user-qd9jn5od7v trying this in vr on a regular capsule, it disappears before its ever visible in headset. any explanation or help?

@@user-qd9jn5od7v Thx bro.

I know im answering late but you can use Vector3.Distance(position a, position b). that will give you the distance between two objects

​@@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 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xppompv1DBg.html (5:20)time
