I have been following this tutorial on how to use Navigation2D because it seems to be exactly what I need, due to the updating path function. In my game, the position that the nodes are moving toward is the player.
Problem
My Enemy node navigates and moves around walls but only moves toward the position where the Player started. I have tried using the pos_update signal to update the path, but that isn't working. It would be very appreciated if someone would help me or introduce me to new methods. (calling update_path() on process() doesn't work)
Main scene code
extends Node2D
signal pos_update
var enem = preload("res://Enemy.tscn")
onready var pos1 = $Position2D.position
onready var pos2 = $Position2D2.position
onready var pos3 = $Position2D3.position
onready var navv = $Navigation2D
onready var end_pos = $Player/Position2D.position
# Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.
func _ready():
pass
# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
#func _process(delta):
# pass
func _on_Timer_timeout():
var e = enem.instance()
add_child(e)
e.position = pos1
e.goal = end_pos
e.nav = navv
connect("pos_update", e,"update_path")
func _on_Timer2_timeout():
var e = enem.instance()
add_child(e)
e.position = pos2
e.goal = end_pos
e.nav = navv
connect("pos_update", e,"update_path")
func _on_Timer3_timeout():
var e = enem.instance()
add_child(e)
e.position = pos3
e.goal = end_pos
e.nav = navv
connect("pos_update", e,"update_path")
Enemy code
extends KinematicBody2D
const GRAVITY = 950
const WALK_SPEED = 400
onready var player = get_parent().get_node("Player")
var velocity = Vector2()
var DIRECTION_RIGHT = 1
var DIRECTION_LEFT = -1
var direction = Vector2(DIRECTION_RIGHT, 1)
var react_time = 400
var dir = 0
var next_dir_time = 0
var next_dir = 0
var next_dir_y = 0
var next_dir_time_y = 0
var dir_y = 0
var helth = 6
var cn = true
var nav = null setget set_nav
var path = []
var goal = Vector2()
func _ready():
pass
func set_nav(new_nav):
nav = new_nav
update_path()
func update_path():
path = nav.get_simple_path(position, goal, false)
func _process(delta):
if path.size() > 1:
var d = position.distance_to(path[0])
if d > 2:
position = position.linear_interpolate(path[0], (WALK_SPEED * delta)/d)
else:
path.remove(0)
