Health stuff

[bkelynch]

OK, i know how to lower heath when collision with the enemy, and I know how to higher heath when collision with the health peice. I just need to know how to destroy the player actor when the heath is at 000 (I'm using a text actor as my health)

[Troodon]

Put in the actor's draw actor:

Code: Select all

if (textActor.textNumber = 000)
{
destroyactor (actor);
}


I'm not so sure of that destroyactor event but you can search it from the list in the script editor.

The code doesnt work. Insted, it wont let me raise or lower the health.
It just keeps it at 000

[DilloDude]

You need to have

Code: Select all

if (textActor.textNumber == 000)


Use a single = when you want to set a variable. Use a double (==) when you want to compare to expressions.

The code works, but every time i open the game, the text is at 000, even if i type in 001 or add 1 when the actor is created

Make a variable, Health. On your collisions etc. say Health-=10. ON the text actor's draw actor event, textNumber=Health, if Health <= 0, DestroyActor("Player"). On create actor, Health = 100.

It still doesnt work

I had trouble with that before, but I think I can help.

Make a variable "health".
in create actor do: health =10;
you can make your health amount any amount.
then on collision on any side of bullet(or whatever makes you health go down) type:

health=health-1;

draw actor

if(health<000)
{
health=0;
destroy actor("event actor"):
}

hope that helped.
