I am making a 2d side scroller plane game. What is the best way to program the enemy planes to follow a certain path. I want to do it the most efficient way (ie, not hardcoding every single point in the path). Should I read it from some text file that somehow represents the path a plane would follow. Thanks for any suggestions.
