Capsule robots that follow entity

[sore68]

Hi
I have a capsule shooting turret. and use create_entity{} (destroyer-capsule)
However, these capsules do not follow the turret.

If I want the capsule to follow the turret, do I have to make a group? Or is there another way?

You create combat robot via surface.create_entity and specify its target during creation.
You can only set robots target during its creation.
Here's example from my old mod:

Code: Select all

local companion=ent.surface.create_entity{position=ent.position, name=robot_name, force=ent.force, target=ent}

Oh thank you.
But I don't control why robots not following with command...

I decided to copy it to "ammo" type capsules and use it.
