Code trouble making healthbar

[Yorae]

Basically all I need to know is what's wrong wih this code I'm trying to use:

if collissionnum.textnum = one.textnum healthbarguitar ChangeAnimation("healthbarguitar", "80 health", FORWARD);

I want the health bar animation to change each time the 'collissionnum' actor's textnum is the same as 'one'

can you help?

Well that doesn't sound very optimal, but the if statement needs to be like this.

Code: Select all

if(collisionnum.textNumber==1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("healthbarguitar", "80 health", FORWARD);
}

collisionnum is a text actor, since textNumber is an actor variable only used by text actors.

I've uploaded my project file as the attachment, the last comment didn't seem to work, so I was hoping you might be able to take a look and fix it for me? since it is probably a vey simple thing that I am doing wrong.

I need the healthbar's animation to change to a different animation under the different circumstances: if collissionnum = 6, 12, 18 and 24 (different animation is there for each different number)

Here it is. A tip... You have two of the same event (collision events in this case), they should be condensed into one script. The collisionnum.textNumber=collisionNum.textNumber + 1; script should be at the beginning of the second collision event. I fixed it in the file. Also the mistakes you had were both spelling mistakes. collisionnum and textNumber.

thanks for trying to help, but when I opened that up it still didn't seem to work :/

[skydereign]

What do you mean it doesn't work? What error does it give?

[Yorae]

It isn't that the code itself comes up with errors, it is simply that the code doesn't do what I want :/ the code still has no effect on the healthbar like I want it to.

yeah .. but your whole game is not finished xD
finish your movements and attacks first then you fix your healthbar
