so im trying to make the ennemy follow the player but it wont

Question

Here is the code
So im working on a shooter game and its my first one and im trying to make a ennemy that follows the player but im really struggling because instead of following the player it keeps the distance it innitially had with the player pls help

extends KinematicBody2D

var speed = 200
var motion = Vector2.ZERO
var player = null

func physicsprocess(delta):
motion = Vector2.ZERO
if player:
motion = position.directionto(player.position) * speed
motion = moveand_slide(motion)

func onArea2D2bodyentered(body):
player = body

func onArea2D2bodyexited(body):
player = null

Comments

try

var velo = Vector2.ZERO

func _process(_delta):
  var target = $node_target.global_position
  var rot = (target - $point.position).normalized()
  if $point.position.distance_to(target) >= 10:
      $point.position += rot * velo
pass

Ok so there is one thing i don"t get what do you mean by point

---

$point = $Player etc. ==> $node_name
