Hey Everyone!
I am currently working on a Dungeon Crawler, where I want some flying bat enemy to follow the player. I am using a NavigationRegion3D Node with a baked Navigation Mesh and my GridMap node for the world is attached to that node.
Everything is working fine, but the enemy is staying very low on the floor. First I thought this is because the reference point of my player is at the bottom of the player model, but I have now added a Marker3D node in my player scene (at camera height) and set that as target.
I feel like the enemy is bound to the mesh that is rather low on the floor. Ideally i would like the enemy to randomly choose a height to fly at (within a certain range), but for now it would be fine to just offset the height of the enemy by a fixed amount.
This is my code to send the bat towards the player:
func _physics_process(delta):
var player_position = player.global_transform.origin
get_tree().call_group("enemies", "update_target_location",player_position)
print(player_position)
The _physics_process and update_target_location function in the enemy looks like this:
func _physics_process(delta):
var current_location = global_transform.origin
var next_location = nav_agent.get_next_location()
var new_velocity = (next_location - current_location).normalized() * SPEED
velocity = new_velocity
move_and_slide()
var player_position = player.global_transform.origin
look_at(player_position)
self.rotate_object_local(Vector3(0,1,0), 3.14)
func update_target_location(target_location):
nav_agent.set_target_location(target_location)
Variables here are:
@onready var nav_agent = $NavigationAgent3D
@onready var anim_player = $AnimationPlayer
@onready var player = $"../PlayerCharacter"
var SPEED = 3.0
Please let me know if you need further details. Thank you very much in advance!
Best,
