Create a variable each for score and lives, and increase them when you need to.

2l84zwamani · 2010-10-29 01:28:36

Make something like

When greenflag clicked
Set score to 0
Set time to either 0 or for a countdown 20 or whatever
Forever
If <don't catch anything>
Change score by -1
Wait until <don't catch anything>
EndIf

When greenflag clicked
Forever
Wait 1 sec
Change time by -1 (or +1 depending on if you want it countdown or count-up)

I did what you said but my life only goes down after a few hits and my score will only go up a few catches what am i doing wrong

When i recieve START GAME

Try taking out the wait until block. I'm having a little trouble visualising this, so my answer may be wrong.

I tried taking out wait until block and nothin is happening

shera · 2010-10-30 00:37:13

When making the life or score variable do I do it for "only this sprite" or "for all sprites"?
and do i put the script on the falling items for the sprite that is meant to catch it?

Doesn't matter smile

That's what I do.

Well, I looked at it. I have two questions.

1. What is wrong with it?
2. What's the point?

And here's another issue. The game is inappropriate. Quite a lot of alcohol references.

shera · 2010-11-01 19:50:01

the issue with it is
1. it doesn't keep score. sometimes the score will jump to 40 while other times it doesn't go up
2. the life won't go down when hit.

the point of the game is to feed homer without feeding him his family.

I'll delete the game and just censore it and then upload it back.
any help would be appreciated

I was about to look again but you deleted it. Tell me when you re-upload.

here u go

lasc12 · 2010-11-02 18:25:19

Click here. This ought to do it. There's still alcohol, though. It's in the instructions, when it talks about drinking and in the images you see when you win. If it didn't work, pray tell. Please give credit if it does.

put set lives or score to zero. say red is where you lose a life. then put if touching collor red change lives or score by -1 or if its score by1. then put wait until touching color red if thats the thing that you lose a live with or green if thats the thing that makes the score go up.

look at my project Quidditch r the score except that goes u by ten and you can always change it

Winkysquirt · 2010-11-03 11:09:14
