Endless Runner - How to make the distance value increase at a faster rate as the game goes on?

Slayre77

HI, Im working on a runner game. I want to make it seem as if everything is moving faster as the player progresses further. However, I cant figure out a way to make the distance value (integer) to increase faster . Any help would be appreciated. Ty

You want a way to make a value 'increase faster' ?

So basically you want the rate - that something is changing - to speed up ?

You could try multiplying the value by game.time.

So you're just wanting to change the rate of increase for an attribute called game.distance?

You could create a real attribute called game.distanceMultiplier and set it to 1. Then have a timer:

Timer every 5 seconds
Change attribute game.distanceMultiplier to game.distanceMultiplier+0.1


To display the distance:

Display Text game.distance*game.distanceMultiplier


So after 5 seconds, the distance multiplier would be 1.1; after 10 seconds it would be 1.2; etc. If the distance is increasing steadily, then this would ramp up the speed every 5 seconds.
