very simple AI for a game

[mullwaden]

I'm doing a zelda-like game. I've made it work somewhat i walks around in a world and can walk into houses and stuff, there are also some items. What im missing now is the monsters :D

Basically what i want these to do is run after my character if i is within certain range anyone got an idea how this can be done ? :)

I've never heard of such a game !!

maybe it's me or maybe it ain't so popular but anyway send some info about the game & it's rules & i might be of some assistant

ive made it myself :) or you mean you dont know what zelda is ? Omg ! its like the best game for all nintendo consoles :P anyway what you do is you walk around with a character what i want the monster to do is to walk after you if you are withing certain range.

Well... Just because it is famous for the Nintendo people, that doesn't mean that it is famous worldwide... I've heard of it, but I have not seen it with my bare eyes... ;)

I remember there were some discussion on AI stuff at the Kirupa if I remember correctly... Go search the forum... ;)

Here is an example, the movieclip follows the cursor, if you want a clip that follows you main character you just have to change the _ymouse and _xmouse with the path and (_x,_y) property of you character movieclip.
