A_VileChase

(no parameters)

Note: This function has been superseded by A_Chase, which duplicates and extends its functionality. Use of the newer function is advised in order to maintain maximum flexibility in your code.

This function makes the calling actor advance on its target. The actor may enter an attack state (if it has one) at any time. If the calling actor comes into contact with a corpse, it will enter the Heal state (if one exists) and resurrect the actor in question (provided the actor being revived has a Raise state defined).

The function is named after Doom II's Arch-Vile, where the 'healing' ability originated from.
