How do I make AI Player for Brick Breaker Smoothly?

Hi, can anyone help me.

I want to make Ai player for brickbreaker game, but the move of player looks glitch went moving into the ball. I read that this can be done using lerp, but I can't using it :D

thank you

I would use MoveTo behavior. On every tick move to (Ball.x, self.y) position. Then adjust the parameters like speed, acceleration and deceleration for smooth movement.

thank you for your help dop200,

one again, what if I put ball more than one?

I tried using family but the AI player always following the X of first ball,

ai player ignoring other ball

It may be a difficult task to make a smart AI that can deflect multiple balls.

You can try a simple method first:

On every tick pick ball instance nearest to the (player.x, player.y), move player to ball.x

.

Also, you don't need a family. You can add multiple instances of the same Ball sprite.
