accelerate away?

nowherejay

greetings! first time poster! been working on GS for a week now learning the ins and outs. started messing with the behaviors in the asteroids template and got the behavior accelerate towards to get some asteroids to fly towards the player, but since there is no behavior for it, how would one get the asteroids to fly away from the player? say they are flying around slow, and then suddenly accelerate away?

hello! hmm it might be difficult, but all i want them to do is go in a random direction away form the player. so i want the player to be flying around and if it gets near one of these monsters it takes off away from the player

thanks for the help!

Hey there, what direction do you want them to go in and what do you want to trigger them to go away?

hello! im kind of bumping this topic because its the one thing i cant shake about my game in order to go on i kind of need a bit o help with this. i would like the enemy to go in any direction fast, when they are triggered by he player character being near them. i figured out how to get some enemies to fly towards and follow the player a bit which is good but id like some to be repelled by the player also.

Hi, I think I can help. I've just downloaded GS and been messing around trying to achieve the same behaviour - when I realised how to do it, I had a real facepalm moment. Just use accelerate toward, but flip the acceleration value from + to -. Simple, huh?
