Ease maybe connected to position, and have a timer connected to the next ease position, I don’t really know I haven’t done that before

You could probably research stealth game guard’s AI, as it is similar to what you want

JR has an example that does exactly what you’re looking for (It may not have the ability to wait at the points, but adding a single timer should fix that issue)

It’s the first one on the list

I’m gonna try to make a simple stealth example

  • Enemy walks in set patterns (I can’t figure out JR 01’s bundle lol)

  • Enemy sends out raycasts to make a viewcone

  • If ray collides with player and there’s nothing in between the enemy and player, instant game over

Raycasts failed because they don’t rotate with the enemy

Ray casts can rotate because they have an Angle input. I would recommend looking at my Lighting example to see an efficient way to have all the ray casts

Summary: (Starting Value + Player Rotation) - FOV/2
I spawned in another object to have the ray casts because I could assign each of them a starting value without having to manually do it. (In the example the lines extend to match the ray cast length, this is unneeded for what you’re doing unless you wanted to have a visual of the enemies sight line)
