Time for action – Writing a state

The best place to learn about writing states is in our enemy class. Up until now we've been using TestEnemy.uc for our enemy code, but now it's time to develop this class more.

1. Rename TestEnemy.uc to AwesomeEnemy.uc.

2. At the top of the renamed class, change the class declaration line to this:

   class AwesomeEnemy extends AwesomeActor;

   Notice that we're also removing the placeable keyword. Our enemies are handled entirely by the AwesomeEnemySpawner class now.

3. Speaking of the spawner class, we need to change the class reference in our spawn function there. Open up AwesomeEnemySpawner and change the SpawnEnemy function and variable declaration to look like the following code snippet:

   var AwesomeEnemy MySpawnedEnemy;

   {
     if(MySpawnedEnemy == none)
       MySpawnedEnemy = spawn(class'AwesomeEnemy', self,, Location);
   }
