Question

Player is a FirstPersonController running around on a terrain. I want the enemies to be similar, they just look at and move toward the player, reacting to the terrain in much the same way as the player.

I got the enemy chasing the player using it's transform.LookAt and transform.Translate but of course it moves in 3D space rather than along the ground.

So how is this achieved? I assumed using the rigidbody.velocity but none of the myriad of things I tried worked.

Any help/links appreciated.

Place a rigidbody and use gravity

I tohught you said you had the enemy chasing the player?

myTransform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(myTransform.rotation,
Quaternion.LookRotation(target.position - myTransform.position), rotationSpeed*Time.deltaTime);
//move towards the player
myTransform.position += myTransform.forward * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;

That's a little too advanced. I'm not worried their feet being in the right place, I'm just using capsules.
