You could make a large sphere, hide it and position it at the same position as the enemy. Then, when it detects a collision between you and the sphere, you can make it attack.
You could also get the distance between the enemy and the player manually using the maths, here's is a function that does that (just a quick note, its not mine, can't remember who gave it to me though)



Then, when you come within a certain distance, run the code your enemy uses to attack.

Cheers,

I would be unstoppable if I could just get started...
