In this Unity tutorial, We'll use, from the ground up, the State Machine programming pattern to setup some simple logic for our enemies.
This is a standalone video that walks you through setting up a statemachine for, in our case, enemies. But due to its design it's a perfect setup for characters or NPCs as well, and since the states are self-contained it's very easy to modify.

There will be a Part 2 to this video that expands on the idea by dividing the logic of our states into ScriptableObjects, but this video is meant to act as a standalone, and so if you're interesting in learning how to setup a stateMachine, this is video for you!
