Time in your Game

Hey! guys I have a question would you help me out?

How I can Make a Timer Count down?

The time has 15sec only, then I have to destroy 5 objects

if the time is equals to 15 or greater than 10sec while done destroying the 5 objects a text will appear saying "Awesome" when it is equals to 10 or greater than 5 a text will appear saying "Great" and lastly when it is equal to 5 or greater than 0 it will say "Good".

I noticed you already saw my simple countdown timer example.

All you'd have to do is check if your objects are being destroyed.

for example:

Set TimeRemainingInSeconds to 15

Create a Global variable ObjectsDestroyed

on object destroyed add 1 to variable ObjectsDestroyed

system compare variable ObjectsDestroyed= 5

system trigger once

• system compare two values: TimeRemainingInSeconds > 0

-- system set text to : "Good"

• system compare two values: TimeRemainingInSeconds > 5

-- system set text to : "Great"

• system compare two values: TimeRemainingInSeconds > 10

-- system set text to : "Awesome"

• system compare two values: TimeRemainingInSeconds = 0

-- system set text to : "You failed!"

Cant you use the built in Timer Behaviour?

Its purpose built for Multiple Timed operations...

Just add it to any Sprite in the game or object such as a Text object or Sprite font...that way you can have an onscreen timer by using the Set Text function

Thank you. I will try what you have given to me... <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Can you give a sample capx instead. I can't understand. It is highly appreciated. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> thanks
