[Solved] Enemy only attacking one player?

I have an enemy that acts as a one way door, it "opens" when the player gets within the door's attack range on the left only. However, it only seems to attack one player and never the other, so the player the door does not respond too can become unable to proceed.

The script gave me the same result. Maybe I'm overlooking something? The door does attack the other player if the player it was first attacking dies.

Code:

Your door has FACING 1 so it's not facing the player ;) it should be facing 2

facing {int}

    ~ This is for forcing the entity to face certain direction regardless where he/she is going.
        0 = no force (default).
        1 = force the entity to face right.
        2 = force the entity to face left.
        3 = force the entity to face same direction with level's direction.
    ~ Setting this allows players to play BACKWALK.

Thou try changing ATTACK animation to IDLE2 instead.  It should be more simple and work better this way.  IDLE2 triggers when enemies are in range, or for enemies when player is in range.  Make sure to increase the max idles in models.txt.

IDLE# (used by all entities)

    ~Played if there's opponent within set 'range' while in IDLE.
    ~# is the number of animation. Do not type # but type a number instead.
    ~For instance, IDLE2 has 'range 0 100'. Entity will play default IDLE when enemy is farther than 100 pixels but once an enemy is within 100 pixels, IDLE2 will be played instead.
    ~If there are multiple IDLE# animations, the one with lowest number has the highest priority.
    ~Before using this, increase the maximum number of IDLE with 'maxidles' in models.txt (see Models.txt above).
    ~These animation ARE NOT related to PAIN#, FALL# or DEATH# at all!

I couldn't get idle2 to play at all. Range must have some sort of issue with negative numbers. I deleted the facing parameter altogether and changed the range from -30 0 to 0 30 and it works for both players now. I'll have to create some reversed sprites for the door animation but I'm just glad it works now. Thank you BeasTie!

Np glad you sorted it. :)

Another trick for doors is a switch that the player can attack that opens the doors.  The door and switch are one just made as one sprite.
