This is a bit of a weird one I can’t figure out. So I am creating a game and I have an Enemy node with a basic follow/hunt script but when I try to instance them to spawn in, they seem to lose the script functionality, so instead of coming after me, they just stand there.
EDIT:
Sorry about lack of information, Enemy gets spawned in directly under MainScene
Scene structure:
MainScene
- Canvas Layer
- TileMap_Ground
- Player
- TileMap_Above
- Camera2D
- Chest
- SpawnTrigger
- SpawnArea
- Enemy (I'm assuming it gets placed after everything when it spawns in)
Enemy Node:
KinematicBody2D
-Sprite
-CollisionShape2D
-Timer
Enemy Script:
extends KinematicBody2D
var curHp : int = 5
var maxHp : int = 5
var i = 0
var enemyY
var enemyX
var rootNode
var moveSpeed : int = 150
export var xpToGive : int = 30
var damage : int = 1
var attackRate : float = 1.0
var attackDist : int = 80
var chaseDist : int = 400
var loadCoins = load("res://Coins.tscn")
var loadSword = load("res://Sword.tscn")
var loadArrow = load("res://Arrow.tscn")
var loadBow = load("res://Bow.tscn")
var loadShield = load("res://Shield.tscn")
var loadLoot = [loadCoins,loadSword,loadShield,loadBow,loadArrow]
var rand = RandomNumberGenerator.new()
var random
onready var timer = get_node("Timer")
onready var target = get_node("/root/MainScene/Player")
onready var main = get_node('/root/MainScene/')
func _ready ():
var screen_size = OS.get_screen_size()
var window_size = OS.get_window_size()
OS.set_window_position(screen_size*0.5 - window_size*0.5)
timer.wait_time = attackRate
timer.start()
func _physics_process (delta):
var dist = position.distance_to(target.position)
if dist > attackDist and dist < chaseDist:
var vel = (target.position - position).normalized()
move_and_slide(vel * moveSpeed)
func _on_Timer_timeout():
if position.distance_to(target.position) <= attackDist:
target.take_damage(damage)
func take_damage (dmgToTake):
curHp -= dmgToTake
if curHp <= 0:
while(i < 5):
rootNode = loadLoot[i].instance()
random = rand.randf_range(-25, 25)
#random.randomize()
enemyY = self.position.y - random
random = rand.randf_range(-25, 25)
#random.randomize()
enemyX = self.position.x - random
main.add_child(rootNode)
rootNode.global_position = Vector2(enemyX, enemyY)
i = i + 1
die()
func die ():
target.give_xp(xpToGive)
queue_free()
Spawn script:
extends Area2D
var i = 0
var rand = RandomNumberGenerator.new()
var random
var savedRand
var spawnX
var spawnY
onready var spawnArea = get_node("/root/MainScene/SpawnArea")
var loadEnemy = load("res://Enemy.tscn")
var loadEnemies = [loadEnemy,loadEnemy,loadEnemy,loadEnemy,loadEnemy]
var spawnRangeX = [10, 50, 120, 180, 220]
var spawnRangeY = [15, 40, 75, 100, 150]
var rootNode
func _on_Area2D_body_entered(body):
if body.name == "Player":
while(i < 5):
rand.randomize()
random = rand.randi_range(0, 4)
rootNode = loadEnemies[i].instance()
spawnArea.add_child(rootNode)
rootNode.global_position = Vector2(spawnRangeX[1], spawnRangeY[4])
i = i + 1
I do not think that is enough information for somebody to help you.
Can you share the code for how you are instancing the Enemy node so people can take a look. And also some details of how your Enemy node / scene is structured would help.

I’ve updated it to include as much info as I can. Thanks

Have you tried using global_position instead of position and instead of (target.position - position) you can use position.direction_to(target.position) or with global_position global_position.direction_to(target.global_position)

Hey,
Thanks for the reply. I tried that and it caused Vector2 issues. It’s not just the following script they lose, it’s also the loot drops as well.
I can try and work around the Vector 2 issues but I don’t think that is the cause.
Thanks though
