How do I make the player get hit by melee enemies?

Hello,

I have a problem when the enemies attack the player using melee.

The problem is that using overlaping and inverting it doesn't work in this case because it is a horde of zombies and all of them should collide with one another and with the player.

Otherwise they would overlap one another. So how do I fix this problem when the enemies collide with the player and removing his health everytime he collides with them?

First thought, try using an invisible sprite to represent the attacks.

As oosyrag has said already, use an invisible sprite as an "attack area" - or you can use a few math things like; is overlapping at offset *and* is angled towards the player *and* is playing attack animation - things like that.

The most common way is to have some kind of sprite used as a "detector" object though.

You can set destroy to the zombie (optional) or just let it like that..

If the character still dont kill the zombie like he is on AFK ..

Let him be kill by them.. That`s a game...

Just make the character become solid and dont forget the collusion point (optional)

oosyrag really clever!

Thanks all! I fixed it!
