Would've been nice to see an actual flying AI, since I don't event think an AI controller would work with something like this

OMG, I needed a flying enemy for the game I am working on, your timing is perfect! Cheers bro!

you dont need to cast to player bp, since you already are using get player character, just get any component from it, directly.

@VividVibes299 Ай бұрын

Yeah I just connected to get player character. didn't have to use cast to node.

@@VividVibes299 I was just thinking the same thing. No need to Cast for this scenario. the problem now becomes what if you want that flying actor to "attack" and do things indicative of a traditional AI character ?

@VividVibes299 Ай бұрын

@WrathOfAl yeah that's what I did and worked fine with attacking. I have an attack helicopter using a line trace node to shoot my charecter.

Hi! Removing the cast, how would you do it with a BP interface?

@FireFox64000000 6 ай бұрын

Why would you need to? You're just casting to the player. The player is already loaded in the memory so it's not going to have any hit to performance.

Cool trick ! Question though. I want the flyer to stop/react/ do something once it gets close enough to the player character. I am able to get a distance inside a variable so that when its less than lets say 200, the flyer stops. Then once the character keeps moving greater than 200 flyer continues to move. Tried setting the Initial Speed on the Projective Movement to zero and it keeps moving.

Can I spawn a nav mesh around a generated room during runtime?

@FireFox64000000 6 ай бұрын

Then I could just use the built-in AI system to set the homming target. Make different patrol paths, or set it to empty space near the player for flying ranged enemies. Even better it simplifies how I was going to spawn allies for the player using their gun.

What if i dont want him homming towards the player? Like i want it to dip up and down three the clouds 2:53

I'd not quite call this flying ai but I did learn some things.

@@vegitoblue2187 I don't know what you're asking for. I do know I found it as a component when I typed in the word health looking for the health system I made. The outputs it has in blueprints are current health Delta health and I think damage causer and damage type. Can't give you much more than that. I just discovered it last night and I've been working at my day job today.

I want it just to fly around in the sky EDIT I ended up using ai moveto and random roam form that other NPC tutorial where the NPCs roam around, and did like you did here and make the character up super high on the Z axis. Works the same essentially.
