well, I don’t know about more efficient but I don’t seem to get slow downs with my method, only an occasional confused robot. I have a helper robot that attacks the closest enemy that is in range, if none are in range then it enables a script ( referred to in the script as “friends”) but also in the script is a raycast so that if while attacking, my robot hits anything tagged “wall” he won’t try to shoot through it but move closer to the enemy until that raycast hits him and he resumes shooting. I’ll past the script here though it probably needs more explanation. I basically check the distance of the 6 respawning enemies from their location to the robot and the closest one occupies the open Public gameObject spot ( BadGuy) and that is his target.
hmmm. the icons to paste in code are suspiciously missing so I will have to paste it in this window
