Did you declare collition in obj_enemy? Also, shouldn't you have posted the Alarm 0 event code instead? And the Create event of obj_enemy.

 

[macewindul();]

oh right i'll post it

 

[macewindul();]

spawn_id = instance_create(0,0,obj_enemy);
do
{
spawn_id.x = random(room_width);
spawn_id.y = random(room_height);

with (spawn_id)
{
collision = place_meeting(x,y,obj_wall)
}
}
until spawn_id.collition = 0

alarm[0] = spawnRate;

collition and collision are two different variables. It should have been spawn_id.collision in the until statement. That's what happens when you try to copy-paste code without trying to understand what it does and how it does it.
