EDIT: I should probably help. This is the function I use for chasing, assuming you understand how to implement it. It's called on a .5 second timer, the gettarget() function isn't the one I use, because I'm using a more complex aggression system to pick a target. I changed it to target the nearest player, here.

PHP Code:


		
			
function Chase(dx,dy) {

  dx = limit(dx,-6,6);

  dy = limit(dy,-6,6);

  len = (dx^2 + dy^2) ^ .5;

  mx = (dx / len) * 1.5;

  my = (dy / len) * 1.5;

  steps = 6;

  target = gettarget();

  for (a = 1; a <= 6; a++) {

    temp.tdx = target.x - (x + mx * a);

    temp.tdy = target.y - (y + my * a);

    temp.tlen = (temp.tdx^2 + temp.tdy^2) ^ .5;

    if (onwall2(x + .5 + mx * a, y + 1 + my * a, 2, 2) || temp.tlen < 2) {

      steps = a-1;

      break;

    }

  }

  setcharani("walk",NULL);

  dir = getdir(mx,my);

  if (steps <= 0) return;

  if (steps == 6) move(mx*6,my*6,.6,0);

  else move(mx*steps,my*steps,((steps-1)/10)+.1,0+8);

}



function gettarget() {

  return findnearestplayers(x,y)[0];

}
