level.variable++ levell.variable--

[agentmad007]

hello ,

if i write:

Code: Select all

level.variable = 0 

Then

Code: Select all

level.variable++

Will add +1.

My question is How to take out an unit of the level.variable ( sorta level.variable--)

my guess was:

Code: Select all

level.variable = 0
level.fix = 1

Code: Select all

level.variable = (level.variable - level.fix)

The console has not complained yet , but i am unsure if it will work as i want to.

Thx

Here are a couple of thread fragments from the global/obj_dm.scr script. Notice the "level.bombs_planted" variable lines.

if (local.counter >= level.bomb_set_time)
{
iprintlnbold "A Bomb has been planted!"
if (level.planting_team == "allies")
self playsound dfr_objective_o
else
self playsound den_objective_o
thread bomb_waittill_defuse
thread bomb_waittill_explode
self.live = 1
level.bombs_planted ++
end
}

if (local.counter >= level.bomb_defuse_time)
{
iprintlnbold "A Bomb has been defused!"
if (level.defusing_team == "allies")
self playsound dfr_diffused_d
else
self playsound den_diffused_d
thread bomb_waittill_set //start first thread again
self.live = 0
level.bombs_planted --
end
}

if the other number never changes (say you're always going to add 5) then you don't need another variable.

level.number += 5 // adds 5 to level.number
level.number -= 5 // subracts...
level.number++ // adds one
level.number-- // subtracts...

if you're say adding the player's health to his angles (why you would do this is beyond me) you'd do it like that.

local.weird = ( $player[local.i].health + $player[local.i].angles )

just as an example of when to use variables to add stuff
