  • Hi Fellow Game Devs,

    I am working on a mechanic but its not working as I want.

    I am asking the user to provide voice input, capturing that in a text box, validating its correct and then want to increment the score and move onto the next word.

    I have been able to successfully do everything except increment the score.

    When I validate if the voice input in the text box is correct, I'm comparing its value like

    System | input.text = Dictionary....

    and that works correctly but since its doing this every tick, the Score just runs up non stop. I tried to use a boolean to check whether the input is correct and if its been incremented as well but it will work once but not again.

    How can I solve this issue? I feel like being able to just check once versus every tick could be the key but not sure how to do this with construct.

  • You can try adding the "On changed" condition for the textbox.

    If you don't need to continue showing the text after validation, just clear the textbox.

  • Try Construct 3

    Thank you for the response. I could not actually find the "On changed" condition but I know I have seen it... how do I get to that condition?

    I was able to solve it by after checking if the answer was "Correct", I would generate a new number, set my boolean tracker to true, clear the text box and show a new number.

    I would use a separate conditional to Show the score, add 1 to it and then set the boolean to false and its working :)
