Easy peasy lemon squezy
In the draw event of the ememy and of the player place the following code

draw_healthbar(x,y-20,x+100,y-10,Inset health varible here,c_black,c_red,c_green,0,true,true)
draw_sprite(sprite_index,-1,x,y)

There you go. You might want to adjust the positions of it
Ask if u need anymore help.

[WMCD]

if you're wondering, in this code, x1 and y1 are the coordinates of the top-left corner of the healthbar, while x2 and y2 are for the bottom-right corner.



^sorry, couldn't resist

EDIT:

Alright add the draw health bar drag&drop in to he draw event.
put this in.
x1 = x+5
y1 = y+5
x2 = x+100
y2 = y-5
back color = black
bar color = green to red
This should make a nice health bar on lite

draw_healthbar(x,y-20,x+100,y-10,Inset health varible here,c_black,c_red,c_green,0,true,true)
draw_sprite(sprite_index,-1,x,y)
i made this but when my hero hit enemy its healthbar is not going low

it is easy to fix
MAke a collision event on enemy then set your health variable to -1 and click relative

If you want multiple health bars, I think you have to make them yourself and not use the built-in Health functions. If I'm correct, there's only one health bar built-in, and it's for the player. If you want a healthbar for the enemies as well, just make your own. Make a healthbar sprite and add a few subimages to it (to show health dropping), set a "health" variable in the create event of an object, and every time there is a collision with something bad, change the subimage to one that shows less health and set the "health" variable to -1 relative. Also, have the object draw the "health" variable as text within the healthbar, like "HP: 7/10"

There are several ways of doing this, but I just listed one way

Doesn't seem to work for me.

If this conversation is still active, I would like to report a problem I had with the moving health bar.

I put the event Draw in, and the draw health bar

 

x1:0

y1:0

x2:30

y2:-5

back colour: black

bar colour: green to red

set relative on

 

Now, whenever I play my game, my sprite_player turns invisible.

Is there any way to solve this?

Put draw_self() At the top of the draw event.  This is because when the draw event is used, nothing is drawn (Not even the object's own sprite).
