The sphere as detection is a super clever idea Dave. Maybe, u could make so once the AI person jump, it destroys the sphere, so it won't jump again if it goes to the same spot

Yeah the next step up in polish would probably be a fancy object that teleports in when you jump as long as conditions are met and disappears to a neutral place when it activates the follower’s jump logic.

This tutorial is an excellent idea, but there was a problem I just had about it and knew how to fix it. My problem was that when I jump while the companion was standing still, the sphere for the companion to jump on appears. I solved this by making it so that if B is pressed and the companion is standing still, the sphere for the companion to jump on won't appear. And it worked.

Thank you so much Dave this helped me a lot. Keep up the awesome tutorials.

Can you give me some advice I am trying to make a horror game with closets you can hide in but I don’t know how to make it so that when you get in the closet the enemy stops following you

Instead of the toggle button to prevent the following like in this video you could have touch sensors detecting your character in the closet.

Do you think you could make a working turret that auto aims at nearby enemies? I just think it would be a fun idea for a defense mechanism.

Ooh! I’ve been needing this for a while! Thanks! But also, can’t you just timer delay your jump for the companion? It should have the same outcome no?

@DaveNodon

11 ай бұрын

True you could time it based on how far they follow. You’d run in to some issues where if they are following from a few paces behind because you just toggled, they’d do it too earlier or janky. But all the methods have drawbacks. You could also do something like check if the Player Y location is higher than the Follower Y position and if it is, then jump to try and match it.

Perhaps a slightly better follower jump AI would be to combine two touch nodons below the follower, both checking for ground: one directly below, one a little in front. If the one below detects ground and the one in front and below (or attached to the front, but tall enough to dip below the follower's height) doesn't, then jump.

Hey dave nodon! Do you think you could make a tutorial for making a menu ui? Im not talking about just the game swap and button select but making the camera teleport so i can switch through parts of the menu and display more info. If this is not possible thats okay because im sure there are other ways.

Question: would there be a way to make it so if the follower gets close to a wall, it'll turn away? I'm making a horror game, but seeing some dude walking in a wall isn't exactly scary.

Can you make a tutorial on how to make a slow motion button

is there a way to make the player that follows you get faster when it gets near you? this would help in stuff like horror games where the only way to get rid of the follower is hiding? thanks in advance :)

It would be similar to the personal space barrier. The output of that absolute value nodon will contain the distance from the player. You can use a less than (

@DaveNodon

7 ай бұрын

I just scrubbed through the video and realized what goes into the player is scaled based on the distance. My bad. This actually makes it more tricky. You can add a moving object to the follower and apply a forward (z+ or z-) movement to boost their movement a bit! (Based on whether the player distance is less than what we set)

Is there a way to set it were if they get to far away they will teleport to you?

@DaveNodon

5 ай бұрын

That’s actually a really cool idea. Yes. The same way we use the absolute value of the difference in positions to check how far they are in this video, you could make it so that if that distance value is “greater than” a certain number, then teleport. That would look like a greater than nodon with a constant set to the “max distance” number you’d like as the other input. Then the output from that would go into a teleport entrance attached the Follower , with a teleport exit of the corresponding letter channel attached to the Player.

How do I make it so that the AI only moves when a touch sensor has detected the player? I tried using a flag nodon but the AI still moved when the flag was off

@DaveNodon

9 ай бұрын

If the flag is handled correctly and placed with the right connections like in the video then there is something messing with the flag logic. Maybe the flag ON switch is activating by accident. Flag would be the way - or having the sensor output be multiplying the movement instead of a flag is a another way

Is there a way to make them follow you but, only for a certain period of time?

@DaveNodon

17 күн бұрын

Yes, you could start a timer for a specific time whenever you turn the follow behavior ON. Then have the time output once it's complete turn OFF the follow Flag.

What if this as also used with the sonic guide

Hey! Listen! (Sorry, couldn't help it!) My family got GBG and TOTK for Christmas! When I say my family, I mean we all share the game, but the person who the gift was addressed to gets to play it first. I was so excited when I saw my younger brother open Tears of the Kingdom, and then my excitement increased when I saw Game Builder Garage! I was playing around with GBG for a bit, and following this tutorial TO THE TEE! But the Companion Person runs away for a bit, and then in order to get them to follow you, you have to chase them for a bit. Do you happen to know the problem? I haven't played TOTK yet, but when I do, I will most likely post a comment about it on one of your Tears of the Kingdom videos.

You created mans groups of constant-nodons and calculation-nodons here. You can use map-nodons instead, so you need a few nodons less.

Map nodons can replace arithmetic with one variable and one constant, but they can't replace arithmetic with two variables. All of the calculation nodons in this particular video can't be replaced with maps.

Have you ever tried to make a rpg and do u got a Playlist for beingers

@DaveNodon

A true RPG with like levels and exp would probably be a lot to manage between levels. I have started an action adventure style rpg like Zelda but the project got too big and I couldn’t keep up. I will work on a beginner playlist that’s a good idea but I haven’t made one yet. I guess as a rule of thumb some of the older videos or videos that have a simple topic would be better. Replicating features from other games will usually always be way more complicated
