Need help with follower combat behavior

[SenL]

Hi,

I'm trying to make custom follower join combat only if leader's target's HP% is below x (let's say 50%).

I have below code but follower attacks no matter what. What am I missing?

 

combat component:

 

Spoiler

 

inst:AddComponent("combat")
    inst.components.combat:SetKeepTargetFunction(KeepTarget)
    inst.components.combat:SetRetargetFunction(3, NormalRetargetFn)

 

 

 

SetRetargetFunction (NormalRetargetFn):

 

Spoiler

 

local function NormalRetargetFn(inst)

local myleader = inst.components.follower.leader

return inst.components.combat:CanTarget(guy)
            and guy.components.health:GetPercent() <= .5
            --and (guy.components.combat.target == myleader or
            --    myleader.components.combat.target == guy)

 

 

Yes, I commented out the last two lines for testing. The follower still attacks when enemy is full hp.

 

SetKeepTargetFunction (KeepTarget):

 

Spoiler

 

local function KeepTarget(isnt, target)
    return target and target:IsValid() and
        (target.components.health and not target.components.health:IsDead())
end

 

 

 

Thanks.

I think I fixed it. It was also using KeepTarget function when leader gets attacked. Don't know why.

Also I had to put parenthesis on the return. Ie:

 

Spoiler

 

return (inst.components.combat:CanTarget(guy)
            and guy.components.health:GetPercent() <= .5)

 

 

NOPE not fixed. Sigh.

Edit:

It works but the follower performs other attacks outside of these two functions. What am I missing?

 

 

Another question is that when a spider_warrior (probably any hostile) gets attacked by leader (me), it sometimes attacks my follower instead. Why?
