Im makin a Game that is still untitled. Its a top down shootem up and it has a really neat control scheme. You move with the arrows but shoot with the mouse. To clear a room and move on you have to defeat all the enemies. And thats where I need help
I want my enemies to move smart I just dont want a predictable path movement. I want them to shoot when its a good time and to use objects as cover, (The only cover are trees) Any Ideas?

what I usually do is use value c of the bad guy as an AI counter. Then when that counter = 1, look at the player, =2 shoot, =3 and a tree is closer than 50 pixels, look at the tree.
Craps, I'm an old man!

if you want him to predict movement, have an invisible object shot out of your player in his current direction and make the enemy shoot at that when it's X pixels away from the player. as for finding cover, you'll need to use collision mask to find backdrops, so thta means getting MMF i'm afraid. unless you just bounce the guy randomly around until he stops getting hit and assumes it's cover, but that would look a little odd.
