Hello!

I have a problem with my enemy. I generate enemys in my while like so:
Code:

---

  
while (j!=0)
	{
		loc.y=random(3000)-1600;
		loc.x=random(10100)-5400;
		ent_create(enemy,loc,enemy_action);
		j-=1;
	}

---

and i set 'j' how much of them i want... but the problem is that more i put in
faster they become. its like their speed is multiplying with their number.

They start to move towords me when im near them so i put c_scan in enemy_action
and called my.event=scan.
here is scan():
Code:

---

 

function scan
{
	if (event_type == EVENT_SCAN && my.health>0 ) 
	{	
		vec_set(angle_temp,dag.x); 
  		vec_sub(angle_temp,my.x);
  		vec_to_angle(my.pan,angle_temp);
  		
  		my.force_x=10*time;
  		if(temp2.y<150 && my.health>0)
  		{
  			if (vun==0)
  			{
	  			my.skill2+=3*time;
	  			if (my.skill2>=100)
	  			{
	  				my.skill2=0;
	  				vun==1;
	  			}
	  			if (my.health>0)
	  			{
	  				ent_animate(me,"attack",my.skill2,ANM_CYCLE);
  				}
	  			wait(1);
  			}
  			if (my.health<=0)
  			{
  				
  				my.skill2=90;
  				
  				ent_animate(me,"death",my.skill2,ANM_CYCLE);
  			}
  		
		  	vun==0;
  			
  			
  		}
  			
  		if (my.force_x!=0 && temp2.y>150)
		  		{
		  			my.skill1+=10*time;
		  			if (my.skill1>=100)
		  			{
		  				my.skill1=0;
		  			}
		  			my.skill2=0;
		  			ent_animate(me,"walk",my.skill1,ANM_CYCLE);
		  			ent_move(my.force_x,nullvector);
		  		}
  			

	}
}

(temp2.y beeing the distance between me and the enemy)

thanks for your help.

if i read you correctly, you want the spawning speed to be changed? if so:

Code:

---

	var _time;
	var _speed = 5; //set the spawning speed here, higher is slower
	while (j!=0)
	{
		_time += 1*time_step;
		if (_time > _speed)
		{
			loc.y=random(3000)-1600;
			loc.x=random(10100)-5400;
			ent_create(enemy,loc,enemy_action);
			j-=1;
			_time = 0;
		}
	}

if you have a6.4 or later this will fix your problem, if not, change time_step to time

this will allow you to set a time for it to spawn each one, change the _speed value to whatever speed you want them to spawn at, the higher the number, the slower they will spawn, if you want a second before another spawn it should be set to 16, 2 seconds is 32, etc
