Hello

Im currently working on making the enemy ai for my game using state trees and want to make him shoot weapons at the player from afar. Would I use the same system I have seen in tutorials for behavior trees where they use an eqs to find best position to shoot from and then make a state task to move the ai there or is there a better way of doing this.

Yes, the same system is perfect, you would just make a modified tree for ranged enemies. See here:
