on tilemap unloaded {tilemap} do

destroy all sprites of kind [enemy]  
destroy all sprites of kind [enemy2]

(rinse and repeat for however many enemies are in your game)

call function [enemies]  
call function [ranged\_enemies]

(call all the functions that spawn the enemies)

Welcome to the comunity @james-jamerson there are two ways I can help.  
1.If you post your code I can fix it.  
2.you could use a variable and set it to true when enemy’s spawn and false when they don’t.  
Kind of like this. 🔻
