Enemy not following the player

Help & Support
1

my enemy isnt following the player.

here is my game
https://playcanvas.com/project/1180382/overview/pest-patrol

3

Character Y pos is 1.895.
enemy Y pos is 0.
So

this.entity.lookAt(this.thePlayer.getPosition());
this.force.copy(this.entity.forward).scale(3); 
this.entity.rigidbody.applyForce(this.force);

gives a force with Y.
Change to

var lookPos = new pc.Vec3(this.thePlayer.getPosition().x, this.entity.getPosition().y, this.thePlayer.getPosition().z);
    this.entity.lookAt(lookPos);
this.force.copy(this.entity.forward).scale(3); 
this.entity.rigidbody.applyForce(this.force);

might help

Also, dont forget to change the lookat script for the Y reason. Maybe just delete it.

7

Sorry, should be

8

still not working

this.thePlayer = this.app.root.findByName("Patrol");
should be
this.thePlayer = this.app.root.findByName("Character");
I think

the enemy kinda follows the player now but its like rotating and walking on different paths before getting close to the player and its not also totally in front of the player when it follows it

11

Try set this.entity.rigidbody.linearVelocity directly. But not add a force.

12

Like this.entity.rigidbody.linearVelocity = this.entity.forward;

13

its not working , can I give you editor access?

Remove rigidbody and collision on Ch14_nonPBR@Walking (1). For the parent entity already has them.

Yes. Sure
