Creating an enemy class

Processing Coding Questions

I am working on a school project and I am having trouble creating multiple enemies form one class. when I create an two enemies from the same class and when one gets hit they all disappear can someone help please.

here is my code

float X,Y,Xc,Yc,Xm,Ym,Xl,Xr,Yt,Yb;
float H1,H2,H3,H1x,H1y,Ev;
float Hbar=3;
float Pdamx=100*width/1000, pdamy=100*height/1000;
color H1G, H1B;
int EM =1;
int EMi =1;
void setup(){
   H1G= color(255,0,0,255);
   H1B = color(0,0,0,0);
  Ev=255;
size(1000,1000);
X=2;Y=2;Yc=500*height/1000;Xc=500*width/1000;Xl=300*width/1000;Xr=700*width/1000;Yt=700*height/1000;Yb=300*height/1000;

}

void draw(){
  enamy E1= new enamy(300,700);
    enamy E3= new enamy(300,300);
  enamy2 E2= new enamy2(700,700);
  background(150);
  rectMode(CENTER);
 if(X==2){Xm=Xc;}
 if(X==1){Xm=Xl;}
 if(X==3){Xm=Xr;}
 if(Y==2){Ym=Yc;}
 if(Y==1){Ym=Yb;}
 if(Y==3){Ym=Yt;}
//health
print(Hbar);
if(Hbar==3){
 fill(H1G);
  rect(25,25,50,50);
}
if(Hbar==2){
  fill(0,255,0);
   rect(25,25,50,50);
}
if(Hbar==1){
  fill(255,150,255);
   rect(25,25,50,50);
}
if(Hbar==0){
  fill(0);
   rect(25,25,50,50);
}
 

//board
  fill(255);

I think you need to look at the tutorial

You also need to know about the difference between setup and draw. This tutorial looks at program flow inside Processing.

Since the draw method is executed ~60 times a second you want to avoid statemnts like

enamy E1= new enamy(300,700);
enamy E3= new enamy(300,300);
enamy2 E2= new enamy2(700,700);

inside draw. These statements from your draw method are creating 180 enemies a second which I am sure is not what you want to do.

show your code and we will have a look.

Maybe there is room for improvement

i AM STILL HAVING Trouble with hit boxes, the enemy only stops when it gets to s specific point not when it touches the hole enemy and i can figure out how

float X,Y,Xc,Yc,Xm,Ym,Xl,Xr,Yt,Yb;
float H1,H2,H3,H1x,H1y,Ev;
float Hbar=3;
float Pdamx=100*width/1000, pdamy=100*height/1000;
color H1G, H1B;
int EM =1;
int EMi =1;
enemy em1;
enemy em2;
void setup(){
  em1 = new enemy(color(255,0,0),0,300,2);
    em2 = new enemy(color(255,0,0),0,700,2);
   H1G= color(255,0,0,255);
   H1B = color(0,0,0,0);
  Ev=255;
size(1000,1000);
X=2;Y=2;Yc=500*height/1000;Xc=500*width/1000;Xl=300*width/1000;Xr=700*width/1000;Yt=700*height/1000;Yb=300*height/1000;

}

void draw(){
