Thank You very much sparkey I understand those directions.

I do have one more question though. How do I mave a variable?

I feel I am asking way too many questions sorry about that.

To make a variable, all you need to do is click up on the SCRIPT tab, then GLOBAL CODE. In this area, click on the VARIABLES button (NOT THE VARIABLES/FUNCTION BUTTON), then on the ADD button. In this box you enter the name (remember that variable/scripts are CASE SENSATIVE) and you can adjust if it is a GLOBAL (default) or ACTOR variable... Click on the OK button when done, and thats all there is to it!

Thank You d-soldier and sparkey this will greatly improve my game

You are welcome.

one last thing where do I put this part of the code?

In The Collision Event Of The Bullet To The Other Actor

shockingly... errors in script when i try and do the script... "illegal structure operation..." and "undeclared healthbar"...

Mine or sparkys?

arcreamer, post your code (copy and paste it from your script in GE) here... typically those kinds of errors occur when you misplaced something in the script, or try to use a variable that doesn't exist.

steps 2, 3, and 4 confuse me. Coould someone explain them to me please?

you must make an actor called healthbar.

ok
2.)change the animation of the healthar Actor to "STOPPED" in "Create actor".
3.)then make two actors ( for now lets just call them "A" and "B").
4.)go to "Draw Actor" of the Health Bar actor and put in the code:

Code: Select all

DestroyActor("A");


Have it "Wait For Frame Action" then put in the last frame number (mine would be 11)

Code: Select all

[code][/code]

those brackets are for making a code box.

for step five, do u put the code in the health bar, or a/b actors?

The A actor
