Hello

I'm a newbie here but I wonder how to set ammo whenever player reload them.

ex. ammo remain (max 10)/ ammo backup (max 20)

10/ 20

if player once shot 1 time ammo of player will be 9/20 right? but now player want to reload, So now will be 10 /19 and can't not reload until ammo remain is lower 10 again.

How can i set like this ? please advice me.

thank you

As the developer you will have to decide where to store the values and what to name them, but the logic is as follows:

You will need two variables weaponAmmo & storedAmmo.

weaponAmmo = 10; storedAmmo = 20;

Events would look something like this:

Condition: On Fire; Action: subtract 1 from weapon ammo;

Condition: On Reload & weaponAmmo is less than 10; Action 1: Set storedAmmo to (storedAmmo-(10-weaponAmmo)); Action 2: Set weaponAmmo to 10

Start there, you will need to adavance the algorythm for when storedAmmo is less than ammo need to fill it gun.

By the question I suppose you are pretty new to this stuff, stick with it and get used to creating your own logic, use the manual.

Good Luck!
