Constrain attribute

bluebyu25

Im not sure, but I think this is the behavior that I need?

I'm trying to make it to where game.misses cannot equal anything lower than 0.

I'm trying to set it up to where every 1,000 points a player gets a "miss" taken off his misses (and I know how to do that) I just dont want the total misses to become -1 if he gets 1,000 points and hasnt missed any yet.

whatever you have changing total misses to total misses-1 have that in a rule that states when attribute total misses > 0

that way it wil only subtract when its more then zero like you want

cheers

Thanks John

This is what I have but it still isn't working. Did I follow your suggestion correctly?



Sorry pic isnt working but what I have is:

RULE: when game.score is = game.score+1000

then

RULE: game.misses >0

then change attribute game.misses to -1

Why would you want to change the attribute to -1 if you were trying to keep it from becoming anything less than zero?

when game.misses > 0
then change attribute game.misses to game.misses -1

That should subtract only when it's above zero. The way you had it, it sounds like it would insta-change it to -1 every time.
