Hello
I set the my.enemy handle to the "you" pointer trough doing a c_scan. Now I also need to do a c_trace while "you" is set to the my.enemy handle. This somehow messes up the "you" pointer and the enemy will keep attacking even when "a_dist" is set back to "0" (when the opponent is moving away).
I'd be glad about any help!
Code:
action act_enemy_fight
{
ent_enemy = my;
////collision hull stuff
// my.fat = on;
// my.narrow = off;
c_setminmax(me);
// my.polygon = on;
my.passable = off;
wait(1);//this is needed to have a valid "you" pointer when using the enemy generator
entity_type_settings();
