enemies spawned from the left, should spawn 100 pixels more from the left, and the ones spawning from the right, should spawn 100 pixels more to the right
User prompt
how would I make the enemies spawning from the left have their graphic flipped on it's x axis? give me a step by step solution
User prompt
rotate enemies spawning from left by 180 degress
User prompt
optimize the code for the enemies spawn direction. separate them into 2 categories based on their direction
User prompt
Instead of relying solely on the spawnDirection at the moment of enemy creation, consider using a global variable or a property within your game's state management that tracks the last spawn direction. Update this tracker each time an enemy is spawned, and use it to set the scaleX for flipping graphics correctly.
User prompt
Create a dedicated method within the Enemy class for flipping the graphic. Call this method right after the instantiation of an enemy, based on its spawnDirection. This method can directly manipulate the scaleX property of the enemy's graphics.
User prompt
After the creation of an enemy instance, instead of setting the scaleX property inside the Enemy class constructor, adjust the scaleX immediately after each enemy is instantiated and before it is added to the game scene. This separation can help ensure that the correct scaleX value is applied based on the spawn direction.
User prompt
Since hardcoding scaleX to -1 worked for flipping, right within the spawnEnemy function or immediately after an enemy is instantiated based on the spawnDirection, forcibly set scaleX to 1 for enemies that are supposed to spawn from the right.
User prompt
add this. Check all points in your code where Enemy instances are created, especially within the spawnEnemy function. Ensure that the spawnDirection is being accurately passed and used at these moments.
User prompt
After an enemy is created and added to the game, immediately update its scaleX property based on its spawnDirection. This step ensures that even if there was a failure in the initial setup, the correct scale is enforced immediately afterward.
User prompt
If spawnDirection is being correctly set to either 'left' or 'right' but the dynamic application of scaleX isn't working as intended, hardcode the scaleX assignment within the enemy creation logic itself, but this time do it conditionally right where you're handling enemy spawning.
User prompt
In the instantiation of the Enemy class, where enemyGraphics is attached, ensure the scaleX value is determined at the moment of instantiation, using the current value of spawnDirection.

When creating an Enemy instance, check the spawnDirection. If the enemy spawns from the left, set scaleX to -1 to flip the graphic. If the enemy spawns from the right, ensure scaleX is set to 1 to keep the graphic unflipped. This differentiation ensures that only left-spawning enemies are mirrored, while right-spawning enemies retain their original orientation.

User prompt
Set scaleX Based on spawnDirection: Since the flipping mechanism worked when hardcoded for left-spawning enemies, you now need to conditionally set scaleX based on the spawnDirection: If spawnDirection is 'left', scaleX should be -1. If spawnDirection is 'right', scaleX should be 1.
User prompt
so flipping works. now hardcode the same thing but for enemies on the right, which should have a +1 to their scaleX
