This enemy ai video tutorial shows you how to make a randomly teleporting enemy that that doesn’t spawn on walls in GameMaker Studio.
The idea is quite simple. You need to define at the start a radial spawn circle and save the first x,y coordinates where the instance has been placed. This area defines possible spawn locations. Now run down a timer and when that reaches zero we try to teleport the enemy in a random x,y coordinate in that possible range. Here we check multiple times if that spot is not blocked by a wall instance and if no, we set the x,y coordinate to the random new positon. That’s it!
