Very Simple Point-Based Game, well not for me anyway :)...

[DaveC64]

Hi everyone

I would like to include a very simply points system in my game, but I just can't seem to figure it out...

Here is my code:

At the beginning of the game

Code: Select all

# The game starts here.
label start:
    $ Jane_love_point = 0
    $ Jess_love_point = 0
    $ Jem_love_point = 0
    
    scene bg door
    with Dissolve(.5)

Where the love point comes in

Code: Select all

        Jane "Wooh... what have you got in that bag boy, it weighs a ton!"
        
        T "Just all of my stuff... Well at least you known I don't have it stuffed full of Blow-up Dolls"
        
        $ Jane_love_point += 1
        
        show Jane
        
        "Janes smiles at Tom again"

Where I want that love point to have an affect

Code: Select all

    if Jane_love_point +1:
        
         Jane "Ye... He is seems like a nice lad."
        
         Jess "Ye ye... but is he NICE NICE???"
    
    else: 
        
        Jane "Well he seems ok I geuss..."
        
        Jess "Just OK???..."

Any help would be great thanks guys.

Cheers

It's this part:

Code: Select all

    if Jane_love_point +1

It should be:

Code: Select all

    if Jane_love_point >= 1

YES that works!!! thanks,

How would I do a range, say form 5 love points to 10 at activate a menu???

[rinrin]

Something like:

Code: Select all

if Jane_love_point >= 5 and Jane_love_point <= 10

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by the menu activation part? Adding an choice to the menu that only appears if the points are between 5 and 10?

Something like:

Code: Select all

if Jane_love_point >= 5 and Jane_love_point <= 10

Thanks again

Just to check we are on the right lines, if a player got 8 love points, would that activate that bit of code you gave?

I just mean really to turn on certain bits of text or other menus using the 'if' and 'else' code within the love points the player may have earn so far.

Yes, that should work.
