Hunters

Part of the Physics and Gameplay section of Coddy's Unity journey. Lesson 60 of 71.

Challenge

Medium

Fill in Hunter so the hunters chase the player. Player is done; leave it as it is.

Add [SerializeField] private float speed = 3f; and private Transform player;. In Start(), set player = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player").transform;.
In FixedUpdate(), take player.position - rb.position, set its y to 0 and normalize it.
Set rb.linearVelocity to its x and z times speed, keeping rb.linearVelocity.y.

Press Play and keep away. Then Check.

Try it yourself

using UnityEngine;

public class Hunter : MonoBehaviour
{
    private Rigidbody rb;

    void Start()
    {
        rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    // Chase the player: find it by its tag, then run at it every physics step
}
