2D movement along vector

[Nomaddc]

Basically I’m making turn-based topdown game, and I need to get Boss (enemy) move in player direction.
I used

transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, destinationPosition, moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

so far, but it has a flaw - it stops at player location. Instead I want it to keep moving in the same direction regardless of reaching player (basically to overshoot player location). Movement is done with moveset functions, each of them has it’s own moves and conditions to stop/keep moving. One I’m working now is supposed to move boss X amount of units alongside vector pointing from original boss position and towards player.

Get a normalized vector of the transform to the target. Update position based on that.

public Transform target;
public float moveSpeed = 1f;
Vector3 moveVector;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
    CalculateMoveVector(target);
}

public void CalculateMoveVector(Transform target)  {
    moveVector = (target.position - transform.position).normalized;
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
    transform.position += moveVector * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
}
