Wrong creation of enemy bullets

[LavX64]

Trying to create enemies shooting, but in fact shooting only FIRST of enemies. Where is the mistake?

Hi,

the problem was that you've created just one timer to spawn bullets from enemies. In fact each enemy need his own timer.

Code: Select all

--Check Shooting
	for i, enemy in ipairs(enemies) do
    
    -- Update Shooting interval timer --
    enemy.timer = enemy.timer - (1*dt)
    if enemy.timer < 0 then
      enemy.canShoot = true
    end
    
    -- Spawn Bullet --
		if enemy.canShoot then
			newEnemyBullet = { x = enemy.x + enemy.sprite:getWidth()/2 - enemyBulletSprite:getWidth()/2, y = enemy.y + enemy.sprite:getHeight() - enemyBulletSprite:getHeight(), sprite = enemyBulletSprite}
			table.insert(enemyBullets, newEnemyBullet)
			enemy.canShoot = false
      enemy.timer = canShootEnemyTimerMax
		end
