hey guys i have a actor called "car" and i want it so that the 'eggbomb' actor kills the car after 3 eggbombs hit it... how do i do that?

Create a var called eggbombhit.

On the car create actor,

Code: Select all

eggbombhit = 3;

Then on the car, draw actor,

Code: Select all

if(eggbombhit == 0)
{
    DestroyActor("EventActor");
}

On the eggbomb, collision with the car,

Code: Select all

eggbombhit = eggbombhit - 1;

This should work. Try it.

.. I would recommend setting up a variable (actor, not global) called "health".
On the car's create-actor script, put:

health=3;

still on the car, add a collision event (to the egg) and on that collision event script:

health-=1;

and in the car's DRAW actor script:

if (health<=0)
{
DestroyActor("Event Actor");
}

thats it.

for some reason when i do all that and i shoot the car, the eggbombs just go right through it like no script was added what happened?

ill try that dsd

Note for that last post: It's important that the egg actor has a collision event setup to destroy itself when it collides with the car, or else the same egg will reduce the car's health as it continues to collide with the car.

thanks D-soldier it worked
