code prob

[DarkParadox]

at the begining i set life=3
whats wrong with this code ???

Code: Select all

if(stab==1)
{
    DestroyActor("enemy1");
}
else
{
    life-1;
}


(by the way i set it on collision)

Try

Code: Select all

life -= 1;

(or -- is the same as -= 1)

[DarkParadox]

it did not work

[Troodon]

Try
life = life - 1

[Sgt. Sparky]

Try
life = life - 1

Code: Select all

life -= 1;

[irblinx]

Code: Select all

life--;

should also do the same thing

[Sgt. Sparky]

is that still valid C?

[Kodo]

is that still valid C?

life++;
life = life + 1;
life += 1;
Are all ways of adding 1 to life


life--;
life = life - 1;
life -= 1;
Are all ways of subtracting 1 from life

All three methods are valid C, how you write it is all down to preference. Usually you'll start out writing the long version ( life = life - 1; ) just because its easily understandable, but all methods provide the same result

[Game A Gogo]

their also Valid C++

[HillBilly]

Did you rember so set up the "Life" variable in global?

[Sgt. Sparky]

or as an actor var if you have many actors

[DilloDude]

Which part isn't working? is the actor not destoying? Is life not changing? or all of the above?
