AI issue

Here's my code!

Code:

    if place_meeting(x+30,y,Obj_Solid)
    {
        if !place_free(x,y+1)
        {
            vspeed = -10
            hspeed = 4
        }
    }
    if place_meeting(x-30,y,Obj_Solid)
    {
        if !place_free(x,y+1)
        {
            vspeed = -10
            hspeed = -4
        }
    }

Basically what I want it to do is make him jump over obstacles if he's near one.
It works!

but...

When he's beside an obstacle, he only jumps once for some reason and he doesn't make it over any high ones because being close to a wall causes his hspeed to become 0 so he doesn't get stuck, this means he jumps straight up if he's next to a wall.

I suggest waiting until the enemy is colliding with the wall instead.
As for him not jumping high enough, I'd have to see the code that makes him move and stuff.

By the way, when are you gonna start doing graphics again?

EDIT: Maybe I should make a platforming engine and post it here for people to use.

oops, I forgot about graphics, I'm busy this weekend so I can't do atm.

Erm, I'll give you dl link:

...Did you even read what I said?

Just try and fix plox? I'm clueless about those things you said

*sigh*... Really?
Checking if the object is colliding with an object as in only checking 1 pixel beside it, not 30.
And I suggest just change the x position of the enemy and not to use hspeed.
Like so:

Code:


if place_free(x+4,y) and oPlayer.x > x{x += 4}
if place_free(x-4,y) and oPlayer.x < x{x -= 4}
if ! place_free(x+4,y) and ! place_free(x,y-1){vspeed = -10}
if ! place_free(x-4,y) and ! place_free(x,y-1){vspeed = -10}


Use that instead to for your enemies AI.
