sequential-ness

Hi y'all..

So I'm trying to have this happen: player receives a bonus if they hit the same target three times in a row. For example: there are five targets called "Target A" "Target B" etc. They get a point for each of them. But if the player hits three "Target A" 's in row, they receive double points. Anyone know whether this can be done?

    When player hits A
    -- XA + 1
    -- XB = 0
    -- XC = 0
    --When XA = 3
    ----Increase points by 2
    ----XA = 0
    --Otherwise
    ----Increase points by 1

    When player hits B
    -- XA = 0
    -- XB + 1
    -- XC = 0
    --When XB= 3
    ----Increase points by 2
    ----XB = 0
    --Otherwise
    ----Increase points by 1

    When player hits C
    -- XA = 0
    -- XB = 0
    -- XC + 1
    --When XC = 3
    ----Increase points by 2
    ----XC = 0
    --Otherwise
    ----Increase points by 1

    X is for 'Xylidic'

    (An acid derived from xylic acid or related compounds)

    @Socks I'm guessing that my question was really stupid

    @Socks .. Thanks, you are kind to me. I'm struggling (of course) with how to apply what you've done. Would it be with the expression editor?

    @-Timo- I think, yes. I'm really grateful for that. I'm also disappointed that after using GS for I think 4 years now, that I can't work this stuff out yet. My feebleness of mind is so lame. Thanks, I shall now try and digest what you've done.

    I've been here for 5 years or more, I think :/ , and I would have struggled to work that out by myself. That's the best thing about GS Forum, ask an intelligent question and someone will step up and help out. :)
