How Can I make multiple instances of an enemy all attack?

I'm currently working on a top down bullet hell game where enemies chase the player and shoot at him. However, when I add the events that make enemies shoot at a certain interval, it only applies to one of them at a time even though several can be on-screen at once. How can I make them all do the same action?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Normally I did not have this problem, so maybe it's some issue with your configuration, but OK, I can offer you a solution for your situation.

Create a GLOBAL variable SHOOT = 0

Say:

SYSTEM Every X seconds (e.g. every second)

AND when SHOOT = 1

ACTION = Enemy shoots

So regulate their shooting by turning ON and OFF the SHOOT variable.

Another TIP:

A cool tip is to say every X seconds (e.g. 0.5)

SYSTEM pick a random enemy instance

SHOOT

This creates a more realistic game rather than all shooting at same time.

Good Luck!
