Zelda style knockback

[Rukiri]

Granted MV probably isn't the best tool for a fast paced A-RPG, it should manage to be able to do Seiken Densetsu 3 which basically has a similar knockback.

[LIST=1]
[*]// vec1 is the player and vec2 is the enemy
[*]    movdir = Mathf.Rad2Deg(Mathf.Atan2(vec1.transform.position.y - vec2.transform.position.y, vec2.transform.position.x - vec1.transform.position.x));
[*]    if (col.gameObject.tag == "Enemy") {
[*]        rb.AddForce(movedir * thrust);  
[*]    }
[/LIST]

Granted this is from Unity but the principles should carry over, This would basically take the X/Y of the Player/Enemy Objects and push them away from each other, however if say a pixel movement script was used the direction of which the enemy object is pushed back would be diagonal if it's not directly straight from the Player. "Watch A Link to the past, should explain this a bit better"

I feel this should be quite easy in MV considering how much more open it is but I'm having more trouble than I should...
