Hello .. In Buildbox am I able to create two variables and compare them? For example, the first variable "shots_fired" is set to 0 and can change while a second variable "shots_recommended" is set to 10 and does not change. During the level each shot fired will increment "shots_fired" by +1. For this example, let's say the players used 11 shots to complete the level which means "shots_fired" is now set to 11. "shots_recommended" was set to 10 before the level started. Now I want to compare the variables and indicate to the player they used 1 too many shots. If this is possible, please point me in the direction of a video or documentation, I have not found any so far. Thanks!
how do I put a hidden message on the official Buildbox forum or is it just the Microsoft Edge translator who is trolling? kkkkkkkkkkkk
Hello, so this is easy enough to do, but the way it would work would depend on the exact way you wish for things to compare. however, you could use the Variable Save/Load nodes to help you out. First step is for when you shoot. in the node that you are using to fire a bullet, at the top type "Let shots_fired = 0;" Second step is to fire the bullet, and in the same function, add "shots_fired++;" Then you just connect it to the "Variable Save" node Now, without knowing the exact process you wish to use, this information may not be enough for you. However, if you join discord: "https://discord.gg/buildbox" and ask for help in Help Desk: Node design, we will be able to help you.
