Enemy won't shoot for some weird reason

[Graystripe2000]

I have code to make my enemy shoot when the player is near but for some reason, it's not working. I used this exact same methood before on another app and it worked there. So, why not here?

A few reasons:

You were testing the Y value for +5 and -5 - but the enemy is +6 and -6 larger than the player, so that was never true. I changed that to be +10 and -10.

You had the enemy to only shoot when flag 5 was on, but only 1 enemy has flag 5 - I deleted that and instead of creating all your objects with flags I inserted a "For Each" statement - that will do the same thing, only now you need 2 lines of code instead of long lists.

I also changed your enemy shooting to a "for each" statement so that it will test the position of every enemy individually and allow only the enemy that is in range to shoot.
