Smart Enemy AI | (Part 8.5: Fix Bugs & Improvements) | Tutorial in Unreal Engine 5 (UE5)

[Music] Welcome back everyone to part 8.5. Actually not part nine of the series. Uh and the reason this is part 8.5 is because uh before moving on to part 9 and adding more features uh I wanted to spend some time uh fixing some of the bugs that I've seen and also adding some

magic idle and make sure looping uh loop animation is on and we want to do this for all the others as well. We have ABP Manny who has a locom motion state, an idle state, and sword idle. U this one, the mm idle and mf idle were already looping by default, but if they're not,

make sure loop animation is set to true. And uh finally, we have ABP man ranged idle rifle idle looping. And I don't think I changed anything in Quinn. No, not Quinn. It's the same. All right. So now if we play now the idle animation should keep on looping. Perfect. All right. So one bug fixed. That one

was easy. All right. Now second bug a bit more difficult is uh when an enemy is in the passive state and we attack them, they don't um respond to the damage and attack us back. They don't switch to an attacking state. And I thought it's because uh in the um enemies AI in the
