Add Based on points...

[NinjaX]

Hello I am wondering if anyone can tell me something that may be actually simple.... Right now I have a point system, And I want to know How do I say to the game

If 400 points have been collected (added tot this int)

Add an extra life (on this int)

I have a global variable set for points and lifes...

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Take a look at int compare, you can check if the score is equal, less than or more than a value. From that you can move into another state to add the life. Setting it to everyframe and having no event for less than will keep it checking the score everyframe til it is above.

TY so much dude Im going to try that today! I wanted to use int compare I am using it for my other point system, But I think something went wrong, I will try your suggestion today!

TY dude

May I ask should it be the two variables or one variable at the top and than the number by which it increases like 400 ? at the bottom ?

you would need a variable that it is constantly being checked and compare that to 400 and say if my variable is equal to 400 go to new state which resets it back to 0 (set int value), add an extra life to the life variable (int add) and a (next frame event) to start checking again.
