How to make AI

Help
#1

So I’m making a fighting game and I need some ai. Can someone help?

AI is pretty difficult to achieve

for many cases random() can fool you and looks like a well programmed AI :grin:

for your enemy you may want to preset a group of actions based on player relative position and state.
It’s likely you want to pick randomly one of these presets
… and you may want to dull the reflexes of your AI to make it less invincible

Well, it really depends on what type of fighting game it is that you need the ai for. Is it a platformer, or a normal 2d game?

Also, something almost everyone uses for ai’s is this:

var player= PlayerName //plug in the player name!
var speed=12;
if(this.x>player.x){
this.x-=speed;
}
if(this.x<player.x){
this.x+=speed;
}
if(this.y>player.y){
this.y-=speed;
}
if(this.y<player.y){
this.y+=speed;
}

This only makes the object follow the player. If you don’t want it to move diagonal directions, just add “else” after every statement, and some fancy “}” for an ending

Agree. This is like asking for a complete project. It is not something minor to help you with.

This is a demo, just like @blurredPixels said, you can use random(). Here you go!
