So like, I'm trying to make a Metal Gear game in MMF.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP2sz4Uynvc
To keep it simple, I'm mostly copying the NES/MSX Metal Gear, then maybe later add in some MGS stuff.

So I mainly rely on the default movements when using MMF, (except this time Snake is on a static movement) which means the enemy soldier, while in patrol mode, walks in the path-movement I set for him.
Problem is, I have no idea how to make it to where he's chasing after Snake while in alert mode.
This is a video of the real game, with the AI I need to copy.

you're probably going to need a pathfinding engine for the enemies

probably

it'd be the best way to make them follow the player and not end up in dead-ends

there should be examples for it somewhere

Alright, I'm not trying to be so dependent, but..
Could you give me some tips or advice on how to get started on a pathfinding engine?
I've spent the past 2 hours searching for anything related to this, with no results.
