  2. I want to make a gun fight game and I’ve select a classic template, but in this classic template there is only one player, no more players to make enemy, so I select NPCs as an enemy. I saved some NPCs as my assets and then try to animate them but in the Animation Editor it works really good but when I save that animation and when I go back to game maker and hit play button and game starts but only my player is animated, Like when I press arrow key then it shows me walking animation but enemy NPCs are just show me JUMP and DYING animation, They are not walking and they don’t have weapons and I want them to walk so please tell me What do I do now?
