Accumulating score

mturner000

I've got single boxes spawning on the screen (one every few seconds). Each box is keeping track of how long it stays on the screen as a score element. I want to accumulate each boxes "score" and display the total in my score label. I can't seem to do that because as each box spawns the score resets to 0. How do I accumulate the sore of each individual box to create a total score I can display?

Thanks,

Mark

First, make a game attribute called score.
Then, In each box, make a timer: every X (you decide what X is) seconds, change attribute game.score to game.score +1.

Try that.

Thanks, Asymptoteell,

That did it. With your help I got the score keeper to do exactly what I wanted it to do. Appreciate your suggestion.
