[solved] Line of Sight - enemies have x-ray vision

[Raen Andaleio]

Hello,


I'm using Fomar0153's Line of Sight script.


Currently I'm creating an area where the player has to sneak past patrolling enemies and use the environment to hide from them. However, I noticed that the enemies can actually see through walls. I would like the enemies to not see the player if there's a tile between them that cannot be passed.


Does anyone know how to modify the script in such a way? I will post the script below - hope that is ok.

Nametag events with:
<sight x>
where x is the range.

Also the events should be either player touch or event touch.

Nevermind.


I found V.M of D.T's proximity detection script and discovered that it can do exactly what I need. It is even better actually, as it gives enemies an actual field of vision instead of a single line.
