The level system in my game works by adding two to the level variable every level (because each level has two costumes). I'd like to do a level select cheat, but I'm doing it by asking the player what level they'd like to go to. If the answer is even, then the cheat doesn't work and the game breaks. How can I make sure that the number is always odd (without having to tell the player to enter an odd number)?

if <(answer mod 2) = 0> then
JUMPLEVELCODE
else
BREAKLEVEL

Another way:

Code:

if((number/2) = round(number/2)) ...

That's easier to use since I don't know what mod does big_smile .

"Mod" is short for "modulus", which is basically a fancy word for the remainder of a division operation. So 23 mod 7 is 2 because 7 goes into 21 evenly with 2 left over.

Really? hmm Try copying and pasting in the password given to you to make sure that you didn't take a l for an I or something like that. Make sure that the account name you put in at the login is the exact same as your Scratch username (don't do Sunrise-moon when your Scratch username is Sunrise-Moon, those types of things). If it still doesn't work, sowwee (I was the one who created your account, so if something went wrong with the password it's my fault xD) - e-mail scratcherswiki@scratch.mit.edu, stating the problem (I think that's the wiki's e-mail address), or just give JSO a comment about it tongue

Ah, it was a problem with the username (lack of capitals). Alright, thanks for the help big_smile .
