The next requirement is to allow the enemy to avoid a shot. I’ll be using the same algorithm with power ups which is for the Enemy to detect the laser’s presence:
Then, I added these attributes to handle evade detection. Basically, I’ll be suspending normal movement and randomize x and y movement if enemy detects the laser. Also, if enemy evades, this movement will need to power down back to regular movement. There’s also the _evadeWeight attribute to make sure that only some enemies can do this.
In OnTriggerEnter2D of the Enemy is where detection, generating random x and y movement and cooldown are implemented:
Then evade movement will commence when _suspendNormalMovement is true.
Now, the enemies can evade lasers:
