moving actor to location problem

allc1865

Hey everyone,
I had a problem with an enemy that has to move to the player's position, but what I wanted it to do was follow the player's position, but move above the player on its x-axis for a second, then come down on the y-axes and shoot the player.

I can make the enemy move the players location, but it moves on both the X & Y axes causing it to come down in a weird way.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

Oh I see now.

I had
--If self X ≠ player X
--Move To player X (along X axis)
Otherwise
--Move To player Y (along Y axis)

I still don't understand the (firing same time) diagonal movement though.

Rule
--Move To player's X
--When self X = player's X
----Move To player's Y

@Socks That weirdly doesn't work. The logic is straightforward but try it out in a project. The movement is not as expected.

Works fine for me ?

Your rules were entirely different to the ones I suggested, you can hardly reply with "that doesn't work".

Well, I initially did (what I thought was) that exact way. Just.. incorrectly. /sorry

@allc1865 Sorry for the distraction. Are you good to go?
