  I figured it out. I set distance as an instance variable for each enemy. When i compared the instance variable is less < 200, then it updated the speed.

  LittleStain, what would be the best way to add a system for each enemy condition?

  I'm detecting the distance from enemy to player. Once the enemy is close enough, I want it to move faster. However, instead of only those enemies (that are close enough) getting faster, all enemies get faster. How do I make it so that only those that are close go faster?

  distance(Enemy.X,Enemy.Y,Player.X,Player.Y) < 200

  Enemy > Set Bullet speed to 800

  I guess one solution is to create a circle sprite around my Player and if the enemy is overlapping it, to change the speed, but I don't want to do that.

  I have enemies spawning from the top and float down with bullet behavior. However, every 10 seconds, I get a studder. Has anyone else experienced frames being choppy when multiple enemies are moving around?

  Did anyone figure this one out yet? Do I just need to rotate every layer manually?

  • When player is near enemy, I want him to swing at him.
  • If he stays within range, I want the enemy to swing at him every 1 seconds and hurt player
  • If the player goes near enemy, but then moves away, I still want the enemy to attempt to swing and miss if player is not in hit area.

  See image of my current events in attachment

  • right now, player gets hit once and loses all health instead of being hit 4 times to die
  • right now, when player goes near enemy, and moves away, the enemy does not swing

  you need to check the space you are sending them too for a collision before you do the move forward. If that spot is empty then proceed with the move otherwise do something else....or nothing but not the jump back move.

  What event would you use for the move forward? Path finding and follow path?

  Gravity doesn't seem like the best way anymore. The movement is very artificial. Does anyone have other ideas on how to push enemies back? Perhaps 'move to location with a parabola'?

  Bezza Thanks, this is helpful! I also fiddled around a little bit and decided to use angle of gravity as well, wait 0.2 seconds, and make the angle of gravity default again.

  My enemies have the Platform behavior on them (this is a side platform game). When the Player hits them with his weapon, I want the enemies to get pushed back, pause a little, and then pursue walking towards Player again.

  Right now, when they get hit, I use the move forward -50 event, but the issue is that this forces them into walls. What's the correct way to push them back?
