Parameters:

target - the entity to chase

priority - task priority when chasing

maxChaseDistance - maximum distance before chasing stops

optimalHeight - optimal height to maintain above target for bombing

heightTolerance - tolerance for height positioning

Method Details

create

public void create(TaskRunner owner)

Description copied from interface: Task

Create the task and attach it to the task runner.

Specified by:

create in interface Task

Parameters:

owner - Task runner to attach to

activate

public void activate()

update in class DefaultTask

stop

public void stop()

stop in interface Task

Overrides:

stop in class DefaultTask

getPriority

public int getPriority()

Get current priority of the task. Priority system: - Returns priority when cone light has detected target - Returns lower priority (5) when searching for lost target - Returns -1 if target too far or at correct position for bombing

Specified by:

getPriority in interface PriorityTask

hasTarget

public boolean hasTarget()

Check if the chase task has acquired a target via cone light detection.

Returns:

true if target acquired, false otherwise
