Syntax:
void movetogoal(float dist)
This is the primary means of navigation available to monsters. It is a very basic form of navigation consisting of only 2 behaviours: 1. Move straight toward the current .goalentity 2. If blocked, move in a random direction for a random period of time. If the monster has the FL_FLY flag set, it will try to stay slightly above the height of the entity in the .enemy field.
Parameters:
dist- How far to 'step'.
Returns:
- void
Other Details:
Please note that the movement target and the height target are set via different fields. Setting .goalentity but not .enemy will result in a monster not adjusting it's height. However, merely setting .enemy to an entity is not enough for movetogoal to match heights with it. The entity in the .enemy field must have a bounding box (it cannot be a point entity) and it must also have a .movetype other than MOVETYPE_NONE).
