I don’t have much experience with programming AI. To make this AI I used a model and modified it a bit, mostly customization, and I wanted the enemy to take away 50 health when it hits you, but that completely broke it. I believe it’s because the AI is still in the loop when it hits you, and it keeps duplicating the path. Here’s both my kill script and AI script, along with a video showcasing the issue.
