I'm a great RPG fan, so I'm working on a little project on MMF1 : A role play game turn based. While the combat system is almost finished and the story has been arleady write, my only problem is that I still have to choose how the fight should begin. I don't really like the idea of random encounters (like in most RPG) and I would prefer something like Super Mario RPG (The monster see you, then he chase you until he got you). So my problem is : "How do I make the monsters move always in the direction of the hero?" "How can I change their movement depending on the direction of the hero?" Sorry if this is a noob question, but I thinked a lot about it and I really don't know how I can solve this problem by myself. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you! All that I see is the years...

Hi!

They will have to navigate around obsticals to get to you...but I'm no coder so I'll just shut my mouth. I'm feeling a bit wella

Craps, I'm an old man!

If you can get it to work though, then far be it from me to say it's not useful. Might be something to look into. Could solve a lot of problems, including smacking into objects in its way. http://www.facebook.com/truediamondgame

Penguin and Jakob, maybe it is my fault because I didn't explain well the situation, but I was looking for a little more good way to create an AI for enemies than simply use the "look in the direction of player" option. Anyway, your help has been really appreciated! MightyJoe, that guide seems very good! I will check it as soon as possible and I will tell you if it is useful for me Thanks again guys! I'll keep you informed All that I see is the years...
