Godot 4.7
Hello, I’m making a 2d platformer that I want to make some enemies have gimmicks like one that would move like the snake from the game “Snake”
the game I’m making theme is your a little anti Virus creature who eats virus and the enemies would be based on those.
probably is I have no idea how to make the snake work as a enemy with the videos on just the game.
please if you can help me, I really appreciate it.
I am guessing your problem is not movement, but bending.
Imagine it not as a snake, but as lemmings. First Lemming decides where to move: left, up, etc.
Second lemming moves into the position of the first. Third lemming moves into the position of the second. Etc.
Does that make sense?
I believe so, lemming movement sounds pretty difficult to code.
It shouldn’t be harder than anything else.
Each lemming save it’s current position at index =0
var path_history: Array[Vector2] = []
path_history.push_front(global_position)
Each follower reads position at index =1
global_position = target.path_history[index]
There is a bit more code/logic than this, but this is basic idea.
How is your world set up? Is it made out of 2d tiles/blocks (like a pixel sprite) or a “smooth” world like a vector image?
Pixel art, 2d and blocky like.
