hey bro, i think this might work. in the script vLockOnTargetControl try increasing the value of range and inside v3rdPersonCamera make a method, name it "autoLock" and call it inside Init() method of same v3rdPersonCamera. I hope this will do the trick ;)


void Init(){
--
--

//invoking autoLock method on initialization and repeating it in every 0.25 seconds for optimization

InvokeRepeating("autoLock",0,0.25f);
}

void autoLock(){
UpdateLockOn(true);
}

i tried the solution above and it still will not work. if player and 1 enemy are standing right next to each other, i just need the player to lock on to the enemy at start without and input being used.

hmm, i see. try this

- Go inside vLockOnTarget script
- Find target variable
- Make it public if it's not already.
- Now you have to manually set it's transform to the Enemy.
- Now call this from Start() method of vLockOnTargetControl but make sure your target is set to      your enemy before doing it.


void Start()
{
Init();
SendMessage("UpdateLockOn",true);
}

hey guys, is someone having this weird issue.
if the enemyAI is bare handed, he is playing all 2-3 ATK animations, but if he's equipped with a wpn, he plays only first ATK animation.

I have checked the iterations time, animator controller, have talked to invector via email. bt the issue remains.. plz help. :/

attaching a snippet of inspector. this might help

hey guys, ummm, that problem(AI playing only first ATK animation) didn't solved so i had a work around. can you all tell me does this solution seems digestible to u guys 

I have changed the code of MeleeAttack() of v_AIAnimator, which will be playing either a Strong ATK or a Weak ATK based on the randomATK count. 


int randmATK;

       public void MeleeAttack()

       {

           if (animator != null && animator.enabled && !actions)

{

isBlocking = false;

     

randmATK = UnityEngine.Random.Range (1, 100);

Debug.Log ("randmATK " + randmATK);



if(randmATK % 2 == 0)

animator.SetTrigger("WeakAttack");

else

animator.SetTrigger("StrongAttack");

}

       }P.S : The gameplay looks more fine and random now

Nice work around, I was thinking of doing something similar with my Rpg addon.

It just takes time mate, I started knowing nothing. I code for like 17 hours a day for the last year or so.
