<font size="5">Fire An Event Every 1 Time Out Of 5 ?</font>

Hi,

I am trying to fire an event every 1 time out of 5 times.

This is what I have, but it's not working:

I understand "%" to give the remainder of a formula.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks...

Can you provide some more detail on that statement.

It reads ThrustTimer = Ship_Thrust.ThrustTimer % 5 = 0..

There's 2 conditions in there which seems a little odd.

Since you are setting the ThrustTimer back to 0 anyway, can't you just check for when it's value is equal to 5?
