Instead of calculating numEnemies as Math.floor(LK.getScore() / 10) + 1, which inherently increases the number of enemies directly proportional to the score, you should base the spawning condition on achieving score milestones (10 points, 20 points, etc.) without directly linking it to the number of enemies to spawn at each milestone.
User prompt
Adjust the function so that it first checks if spawning an enemy is necessary (based on the score reaching the next 10-point threshold without an enemy having already been spawned for that threshold) and then determines the correct side based on whether the current score dictates a spawn from the right or left. This adjustment involves using a more refined condition that combines the score and the number of enemies spawned to decide both if a new enemy is needed and from which side it should come.
User prompt
The way numEnemies is calculated and used causes an enemy to spawn from each side when the score reaches 10 because it does not take into account the alternating side requirement explicitly. Instead of relying on enemies.length, use the score directly to decide the spawn side. For scores 10-19, spawn from the right; for scores 20-29, spawn from the left, and so on. This method requires a calculation that directly relates the score to the spawn side, ensuring that only one new enemy is added for each 10-point increment and alternates the spawn side correctly.
User prompt
Before calling spawnEnemy from within the interval or after an enemy's destruction, verify that the game's state (e.g., score) still necessitates the spawning of a new enemy. Additionally, ensure that the side alternation logic is consistently applied in all scenarios.
User prompt
Use a different strategy to determine spawnSide that takes into account the total number of enemies spawned so far or uses a more nuanced approach with the score to ensure accurate alternation. One approach could be to alternate based on the number of times enemies have been spawned after reaching the initial 10 points.
User prompt
Revise the logic to use the total number of enemies spawned or the score to correctly alternate the spawn side. You can keep a global counter or use the score to determine the side. After every 10 points, you should alternate the spawn side. This might involve tracking how many enemies have been spawned or using a more complex calculation based on the score to determine the current side for spawning.
User prompt
Introduce a condition at the start of your spawnEnemy function to check if the score is less than 10. If so, do not proceed with spawning any enemies.
User prompt
ensure enemies are destroyed after exiting the screen
User prompt
Immediate Replacement: After an enemy is destroyed, you are calling spawnEnemy() to spawn a new one. This is correct, but ensure that the logic inside spawnEnemy correctly assesses the current game state, including the score and the current number of active enemies. Score Dependency: Your spawning logic is heavily dependent on the score, with the expectation to spawn a new enemy for every 10 points. This is implemented correctly, but ensure that when an enemy is destroyed, the condition to spawn a new enemy does not solely rely on an interval check or the score increment but also on maintaining the expected number of enemies on screen.
User prompt
eparate Enemy Spawn Function: Extract the enemy spawning logic into its own function. This allows you to spawn enemies both at intervals and immediately after one is destroyed, without duplicating code. Continuous Spawn Check: After an enemy is destroyed (in the part of the code where you check for player collisions with enemies), you should check if you need to spawn a new enemy right away based on the current score and the expected number of enemies. Adjust Interval Logic: Modify the interval logic to ensure it respects the alternating sides of enemy spawns and the total number of enemies that should be on screen.
User prompt
Make sure to remove any redundant or duplicate code. For instance, the section that checks for enemy spawning at 10 and 20 points repeats itself. A more dynamic approach will clean this up.
User prompt
Dynamic Enemy Spawning: Instead of hardcoding checks for every 10-point increment, use a formula to determine when and where to spawn enemies. This approach makes your game easily scalable if you decide to change the scoring system or the frequency of enemy appearances.
User prompt
Modify the enemyTimer logic to spawn enemies based on the current score and the side they should spawn from. Here's an outline of what you need to adjust: Spawn Side Calculation: Calculate the spawn side for the new enemy based on the current number of enemies and the player's score. If (score / 10) % 2 == 0, spawn the new enemy from the left; otherwise, spawn it from the right. Spawn Logic Adjustment: Adjust the spawn logic to spawn a new enemy on the correct side whenever the player's score reaches a new multiple of 10. You already have a foundation for this with your checks for LK.getScore() >= 10 and LK.getScore() >= 20. This needs to be expanded to account for every new multiple of 10. Maintaining Continuous Enemy Presence: Ensure that when an enemy is destroyed (either by moving off-screen or colliding with the player), a new one is spawned to replace it. This logic seems to be in place, but ensure it considers the updated spawn side rules.
User prompt
you need to modify how you keep track of the number and spawn direction of enemies. Since you want to add a new enemy every 10 points, alternating the sides they spawn from, you can use the player's score to determine both the number of enemies and their spawn sides. Modify the Score Update Logic: Ensure that every time the player's score increases, you check whether it has reached a new multiple of 10 and, if so, update the logic to spawn an additional enemy. Determine Spawn Side Based on Score: Use the player's current score to decide the spawn side. If the score divided by 10 is odd, spawn from the right; if even, spawn from the left. This logic ensures that enemies spawn from alternating sides as the score increases.
User prompt
revise the enemy spawning logic. so when the score is 10, an enemy does spawn, but once it's destroyed a new one should appear also from the right since it was spawned from the right. so starting with the score being 10, an enemy shouldalways be present on the screen. at score 20, spawn one from the left. once that is destroyed, spawn yet another also from the left so now there's always 2 enemies spawning on the screen

the game starts lagging after a while, ensure coins are destroyed after they exit the screen
User prompt
create a method through which enemies only spawned based on the score. once every 10 points, a new enemy can appear. so only a single enemy can spawn starting at 10 points, at 20 points you can sopawn another, effectivelly allowing a max of 2 enemies at a time on the screen, and at 30 points another enemy can spawn

Please fix the bug: 'ReferenceError: enemySpeed is not defined' in or related to this line: 'self.x -= enemySpeed;' Line Number: 39
User prompt
ensure that the `move` method of each enemy instance is called every game tick. This can be achieved by iterating over the array that holds the enemy instances (`enemies`) in the game's tick event handler and calling the `move` method for each enemy.
User prompt
once an enemy is spawn it simply stops, it never moves to the correct direction

enemies should also spawn alternatively like the coins. spawn one from the right and the next from the left then again from the right and so on
