Enemy behavior

Enemy movement ideas:

1. Random direction; doesn't have to move every turn (maybe it just changes its facing direction but doesn't move)
2. Patrolling back and forth
3. Random direction until you are within a given radius, then they seek you out
4. Enemies that run away when they are attacked
5. Enemies that "hide" (like a turtle) when they are attacked
6. Ranged enemies that only get close enough to shoot at you
7. Enemies that head straight for you from any point on the map

For early access, we will have 3 enemies:

• The aimless: currently the red blob.
  • Behavior 1 in the list (the game currently has no concept of "facing direction")
  • I will add behavior 4 (run when attacked) to those so they are more interesting
  • Walking around aimlessly, attacking the player when in range.
• The seekers: the floating enemies.
  • Behavior 3 in the list
  • Will make the floaters stay at range distance from the player as a test (behavior 6 in the list)
  • Currently seeking you from anywhere on the map. Will make the change to either line of sigh if possible, or just distance base.
  • Possibly we will change the model color to let the player know that the floater is now in seeking mode.
• The immobile: currently the chess piece.
  • They don't move, but they have range slightly larger than other enemies.
  • They don't currently hit harder but we could make them miss more often but hit harder if we want.

What's left:

• Hopper: run when hit
• Seeker "detects you" TBD
• Shooter: non-zero chances to miss
