If you still haven’t downloaded the Game Maker, or created a Sandbox account, start with the Alpha Tutorials.
Start by going to Templates and creating a new game from the LakeShores template.
Press the L key to open the asset library, then choose an asset to be your quest giver.
Place your healer away from predators and select it to view it’s Properties.
Under Behaviour, select Healer from the dropdown.
Turn the Walk Speed down to 1 so the asset will casually walk around.
Finally let’s add a Speaker component to help the player. Change the Wait For property to DetectEntity so the healer will detect the player.
Playtest your game to see how it works!
The NPC Healer will also heal Prey within it’s range!
