Hey!
So in my game, I have 4 floor objects, and they are all children of the oCollision object. This oCollision object is what the player collides with. The issue I'm having, is that I'm trying to get the enemies to walk along a collision object, but as soon as they see a ledge, a wall or a oMoveable block, I want them to flip around and go the other way.
This is the code I use to do this:
So as you can see here, the pink enemy will walk to the right, along these 32x32 blocks, but I want them to start walking left as soon as there is a half block right next to them. The code above works perfectly, but unfortunately I cannot set up a collision code for the player, otherwise my game gets a bit laggy, and I can't parent these half blocks to the oCollision object, otherwise the enemies would ignore the code telling them to not walk on the half blocks.
Does anyone have an efficient way to do this? Sorry if I made absolutely no sense

Code:
if (place_meeting(x+sign(hspeed),y,oCollision)) // Are they about to walk into a wall?
{
hspeed = -hspeed;
}
if ((!place_meeting(x+32*sign(hspeed),y+32,oCollision)) && place_meeting(x,y+1,oCollision)) // Are they about to fall off a ledge?
{
hspeed = -hspeed;
}
if (place_meeting(x+8*sign(hspeed),y+16,oMoveable)) // Are they about to walk on a half block?
{
hspeed = -hspeed;
