Issues with enemy behaviour

Post by Pospos »

So i'm making a game with enemies that are supposed to follow you, and it doesn't work at all.
Her is the enemy file

Code: Select all

 local enemy = {}


function enemy:new()
    local nenemy = {}
    nenemy.x = love.math.random(1, Map.wandh[2])--player.x+2--Map.wandh[2]-- 
    nenemy.y = love.math.random(1, Map.wandh[1]) --player.y+2--Map.wandh[1]-- 
    nenemy.h = Map.heightmap[nenemy.y][nenemy.x]
    nenemy.spr = love.graphics.newImage("assets/enemy.png")
    nenemy.active = false
    nenemy.str = 5
    nenemy.range = 3
    nenemy.id = "enemy"
    nenemy.move = 5
    nenemy.life = 30
    nenemy.maxlife = 30
    nenemy.spd = 0.1
    nenemy.clickedon = false
    nenemy.rx = 0
    nenemy.ry = 0
    nenemy.validMove = {}
    nenemy.validrange = {}
    table.insert(enemies, nenemy)
    
end
function enemy:set()
end
function enemy:update()
    for i = #enemies, 1, -1 do
        
        enemies[i].spd = (Map.height_val - enemies[i].h )/Map.height_val
        
        if turn % 2 ~= 1 then 
            
            print("enemy turn :"..turn)
            
            local dx = ((player.x + 2) - enemies[i].x)*enemies[i].spd
            local dy = ((player.y + 2) - enemies[i].y)*enemies[i].spd
            
            if enemies[i].life < enemies[i].maxlife/2.4 then 
                -- runs away from player
                enemies[i].x = enemies[i].x - math.floor(dx)
                enemies[i].y = enemies[i].y - math.floor(dy)
               
            else  
                --chases player
                enemies[i].x = enemies[i].x + math.floor(dx)
                enemies[i].y = enemies[i].y + math.floor(dy)
                saybug("The enemy's speed is :"..enemies[i].spd)
            end
            
            if enemies[i].y > Map.wandh[1] and 
            enemies[i].x > Map.wandh[2] 
            or enemies[i].y < 1 
            and enemies[i].x < 1 then
                --temporary solution for off boudaries limit
                enemies[i].h = 1
                saybug("The enemy crossed boundaries")
            else
                enemies[i].h = Map.heightmap[enemies[i].y][enemies[i].x]
            end
        
            local vraipx = player.x+2
            local vraipy = player.y+2 -- the true player position
            local trange = enemies[i].range+1 -- the true range
            
            --used to attack the player
            if player.x+2 == enemies[i].x and player.y+2 == enemies[i].y then
            player.hp = player.hp - enemies[i].str
            saybug("The enemy attacked the player at:"..player.x+2 .. ";" .. player.y+2)

            love.timer.sleep(0.5)
            turn = turn + 1
