How do I Create Platformer AI?

I want to create a an AI where an enemy moves from side to side. How Can I do this I tried use the sine behavior but I don't know how to make it go further distances.

Thanks!

If you mean to have the enemy move back and forth between 2 points (as in from one end of a platform to the other and back).

A simple way is to put an invisible object at each end of the platform (or patrol line) and have the enemy reverse direction when he collisions with said object.

First you need logic. Then apply the logic.

From side 2 side, i suppose there are platforms between the sides.

Set the controls in the platform properties to custom. Now we have to code every move it will make.

• When there are no decisions to make at its current position.

Just keep going in the current direction.

To do that you need a instance variable that holds the direction.

Use the action 'Simulate control' to simulate left/right according the instance variable.

-When there is a wall in the left or the right.

Platform has a condition 'Is by wall'. Change the instance variable to reflect the change in direction.

-When it comes to a place where it has to decide to jump on or walk under a platform.

Place invisible object on those places where a decision is needed. Detect an overlap.

Pick a random (expression choose(0,1)). If 0 jump

-When it comes to a place where has to decide to just fall off or to jump to another platform.

Same system, place invisible objects. Detect an overlap.

Pick a random (expression choose(0,1)). If 0 jump

And so on. Build the logic. Apply the logic.

-When it is seeing the player

To look for the player you can use the Line-of-sight behavior.

Calculate (based on x differences) what direction the player is.

Change the direction instance variable according.

Eventual look if the player is jumping, if jumping run other direction.

And so.....
