Monster that attack player's allies

Post by Jif_ITFe »

Hello, this its my first post

well, like the title say:
How can I make a monster that attack as much as the player and his allies?

When a monster has a player's ally in front of him he does absolutely nothing unless he shoots him first, then the monster will start shooting him too. What I want is that as soon as the monster sees the player's ally start chasing him and shooting him.

I hope you have understood me
thanks :D

You might be able to do something with [wiki]Thing_Hate[/wiki] in an ACS script. The Friendly flag in GZDoom only does what you have observed. I believe that the helper dogs in the MBF sourceport behaved like you want "out of the box" and those actors are supported in GZDoom, but only using GZDoom friendly logic.

Thing_Hate could work, but I found another solution, A_AlertMonsters with a AMF_TARGETEMITTER flag.
Now I just need to put it with a good decorate.
Thank you
