Finally! I have waves! 🌊

Today was another partial day at developing my 2D project. I got some help with the wave system from Clyde, Jeff, and Austin. Broken up into different conversations. We worked on the code and was able to implement the wave system through some trouble shooting on different area’s. See below for the code that was completed.

Highlighted is main code created for the waves. Wave 1 & 2.

Once implemented I would have a wave 1 and wave 2 come down the game and it will bring 6 enemies and 8 enemies spawning 3 seconds apart as seen below.

Next step is to add the Boss AI. But what I have decided is to start the course over again and to do the challenge reviews and not rush this course. It is something I can not stress enough to do these challenges during the course. Or you will fall so far down the rabbit hole that you will end up like me. I feel I will be able to go through the course faster since wording and coding is slowly coming together. Excited honestly to do it over again. I am not that worried like before.
