This enemy ai tutorial shows you how to make an enemy that bounces off walls (ricochet) with only 3 lines of code in GameMaker Studio.
The idea is quite simple. You give you enemy a start speed plus a direction where to go to. Movement is now setup, the automatic bouncing work when you have a collision with an instance wall which needs to be flagged as solid. To automatically change the enemy’s direction just input move_bounce_solid and viola, it does now bounce off walls
This system can be used for bullets that reflect, bounce of walls also.
