Enemies that spawn right outside of rooms

[TheCarson]

This game started out amazing, but the enemies, especially in the Waiting Room, spawn right outside the door. This is horrible. I don't want to have to keep restarting the game over and over again. Can this possibly be fixed so that I can actually make some damn progress?

Same. Pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥. A year later.... no fix

After you open a door to a new area, be prepared to do a 180-degree turn (press and hold S, press Shift), then press E to use the door to go right back to the previous room. Wait a few seconds, go back in, and the enemies may have gone farther away from the door.

You can also shoot enemies off screen. If you can't see what is in front of you due to the camera angle, just aim your weapon. If your character *adjusts* the aim, that means she can see and shoot the enemy.

These are some of the survival techniques I've used over and over to combat tricky enemy placements and camera angles that all conspire to kill you -- part of this genre's convention.

Monsters move back to their original places when you leave a room... but not immediately. Circle around a little, explore another room, and come back in a bit. Don't go right back in or they'll still be agroed and in the same place. If you give them time, it seemed like you typically have plenty of space.

I think leaving the 'public bathroom' to the 'service area' (1F W) was the only exception to this I saw. But that enemy didn't move until I did, so.... idk, seemed to me they stayed agro for a while after leaving a room, but otherwise they didn't see you unless you moved or they patrolled -- and in the later case, it seemed like they were real far from the doors.

Started the game, saved in the examination room.
Twice when i left i get killed in 1 hit by the guy outside.
Have I softlocked the game?
Also when i go down the game doesnt game over but i seem to be stuck in a dead state, but can open my inv and map. Should i die or is there a get up function?
41 mins in and its worrying

same thing happened with me; I eventually just healed and took the hit, but it seems that just sometimes the enemy will take their time and not insta hit you after your get out of the door, but it's rare. Also, it's just a bug you getting killied but the game still going.
Devs really should fix that place.

Yeah it's not that they spawn just at the door. It's that they were in that position when you left the room most likely, and since the game stores where the enemies are they will be in that same spot. Worth to keep in mind.
