i want to make it so when you hit the spikes he dies within 3 hits
i tryed making lives in numbers and i got it so when it hits it goes down one till 00 but i want it so when the lives reaches 00 the player dies ive tryed everything please help

plus i made it so when the actor hits the spikes he goes transparant but how do i make it so he cant get hurt while transparant

okay,
first make an actor Var called Health.
on the create actor Event of you player:

Code: Select all

Health = 99;

or whatever you want it to be.
on the colliison of the spikes:

Code: Select all

Health -= 33;

and on the draw actor event of the player:

Code: Select all

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


I hope that helps!

Code: Select all

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


That should be:

Code: Select all

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

also, you can simplify it:

Code: Select all

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

Make sure instead of 'Health' you put the name of your variable.

or it could be:

Code: Select all

if(Health < 1)
{
    DestroyActor("Event Actor");
}

Code: Select all

if (Health<1) DestroyActor("Event Actor");


[Sgt. Sparky]

Code: Select all

if (Health<1) DestroyActor("Event Actor");
