Selected actor to target another actor

jasongilboa

I have an actor that is selectable. When I touch on the map it moves there. However, when I touch the enemy, I want it to realize I'm touching an enemy and start firing instead of moving on top of the enemy. Anyone know how to do this?

MotherHoose

need a gameAttribute index type to handle the conditions
touched = 0 nothing going on
touched = 1 actor will go to touch
touched = 3 actor will fire

on your mapActor:
Rule: when (All)
Event: touch is pressed
Attribute: game.touched = 0
--changeAttribute: game.touched To: 1

on your enemyActor:
Rule: when
Event: touch is pressed
--changeAttribute: game.touched To: 3

on your playerActor:
Rule:
Attribute: game.touched = 1
--Interpolate: self.Position.X To: game.Touches.Touch 1.X
--Interpolate: self.Position.Y To: game.Touches.Touch 1.Y
--changeAttribute: game.touched To: 0
Otherwise:
Rule:
Attribute: game.touched = 3
--fire preferably at enemy!
--changeAttribute: game.touched To: 0 (here or after enemy is destroyed)
