quick question

[NightOfHorror]

why is my 2 going to 0 when I click on an actor to make it change
the code was
actorsName.textNumber=actorsName.textNumber-1;

[Hblade]

Are you using 2 cloned actors? I had a similar issue, both actors take the 1 actors event, causing it to double the variable change.

[NightOfHorror]

no.

[Hblade]

hmm, strange then o-o I know your pain though, having a problem you can't figure out. it's aggravating huh?

[SuperSonic]

Could you upload your ged?

[NightOfHorror]

here you go. I will only wait five minutes and then I will delete the file

Lol night is mad. poor guy, I know how he feels T.T

[NightOfHorror]

HBlade, can you delete this topic now

[SuperSonic]

Ok, I fixed it!

First, you have to create an integer in your global code like this:

Code: Select all

int PunchNumber = 2;

Next, on punch, edit the mouse button down event and put:

Code: Select all

PunchNumber -= 2;

And finally, add a draw actor event to M_punch_number and put:

Code: Select all

textNumber = PunchNumber;

And it will work

Try changing 1 to .5. It's doubling for some reason, double of .5 is 1, so you should get your 1 result. Otherwise add a double and use that as .5 and then yeah xD

[NightOfHorror]

well sonic, and H thanks. +1s

[NightOfHorror]

H, your code made the number be .5, and supersonic, each time I put in int M_punch_number=2;, it says "redeclaration of parameter "M_punch_number"".

[Hblade]

Weeeird o-o

try .25

[skydereign]

This is why you shouldn't do math with textNumers. Only use textNumber as a means of displaying, like in SuperSonic's fix.

[NightOfHorror]

why does it work so well with pong. Also, why does the message in Sonic's code appear when I try to do it.
