How can I upgrade bullet damage rate as I tap the upgrade button?(just readthe description it'llhelp

mamadouad09

This is what I want to achieve: If I tap the button once, it charges me 50 coins and increase the firing rate by 1 second. If I tap it again a second time, it charges me 100 coins and increase my firing rate by .5 seconds. If I tap the button once, it charges me 50 coins and increase the weapon's damage by 1. or if I tap it again a second time, it charges me 100 coins and increase my weapon's damage by 2 more. I want the players to upgrade their guns separately. I don't want the reload speed to match the firing rate, or the damage.

I am trying to use tables

You can do it with tables but without tables it looks like this:

Firing rate button actor:
When touch is pressed
     When self.tapCount=0
          Change attribute game.firingRate to game.firingRate+1
          Change attribute game.coins to game.coins-50
          Change attribute self.tapCount to 1
     Otherwise
          When self.tapCount=1
               Change attribute game.firingRate to game.firingRate+0.5
               Change attribute game.coins to game.coins-100
               Change attribute self.tapCount to 2
          
And then a similar setup for the damage button actor.

do you know how to do it with tables

NNterprises

With tables you would just have a table where maybe cell 1,1 is the "firing rate", and 1,2 is the coins. So then do this:

Firing rate button actor:
When touch is pressed
When self.tapCount=0
Change TABLE VALUE (Table,1,1) to (Table,1,1)+1
Change TABLE VALUE (Table 1,2) to (Table 1,2)-50
Change attribute self.tapCount to 1
Otherwise
When self.tapCount=1
Change TABLE VALUE (Table,1,1) to (Table,1,1)+0.5
Change TABLE VALUE (Table 1,2) to (Table 1,2)-100
Change attribute self.tapCount to 2
Save Table

Change Table Value is a rule that you can put in. "Table" here would be the name of your table
