Devlog 32: Loot Enemy
Today I added an additional enemy type to the spawn pool and a power up that has a chance to launch a homing missile on hit.
New Enemy — “Loot”
This enemy is docile and will not attack and can only be destroyed using a charged shot. It’ll ,’dodge’ all regular and homing shots.
(Im aware that the enemies coming from the sides shoot in the wrong direction. It’ll be fixed once I get all priorities done)
Scripting
the code is quite simple. If it is hit by anything other than an object tagged ,’Charged shot’ it’ll dodge and take not damage.
here is the code snippet
This uses the same code to boost the player.
more information on that here: https://vixian.medium.com/devlog-27-added-iframes-to-dodging-and-cooldown-ui-a8a57a3583f0
The Couroutine will increment until it reaches a maximum value (_dodgedistance) and then decrement in another coroutine. Creating the ,’Boost’ effect.
once its hit by anything tagged with ,’Charged Shot’ it’ll drop a random power up and destroy itself.
