limit ballistic count

image

I want to limit the ballistics count on screen so I added a

counter which is checked upon pressing 'NUM1'(which is the

fire button). However upon adding this the event does not

trigger at all, if I remove the 'NUM1' if works fine and cant

figure out why

Any help would be appreciated

You want to limit the number of ballistic on screen to 1 ?

You check if ballisticCount = 0 but where do you increment this variable ?

I don't get what you are trying to do here <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Your code is way too complex for spawning these projectiles, it is pretty hard to explain how to fix it here on the post. Could you add a .capx or just the part you want to be fixed, so I could optimize it?

The system tracks the amount of ballistics on screen and sets the ballisticcount variable to that amount(as circled by red). I only want 1 ballistic on screen at any 1 time. However when adding the check amount on screen condition (circled in green) it does not work at all.

Hope this clears it up :)

Thanks

I've managed to get it working. I just deleted the ballistics variable 'ballisticscount' for the object and added it as a global variable instead. Don't understand why it only works that way, maybe its a bug.

Thanks for the interest of help tho :)

PS. would interested if anyone can figure out why it wouldn't work using the object variable though
