How do I make a powerup?

My Problem is that I want that the max speed amount from the platform behaivor increases everytime i pick up a Speed PowerUP. I made it with an instance variable

It should work, maybe you just don't notice the difference because 25 is a very small change, so try a bigger number.

no it really doesnt work somehow, i checked in debug

Does the speed_boost value change in debug?

No it doesn't

Maybe collision boxes are wrong, or collisions are disabled for one of the objects. Other than that - it's hard to tell what else the problem might be without seeing more of the code. Maybe you set the speed_boost value in some other event, so it's reset every tick.

I create a boolean variable for my buffs (And a number variable if it's a buff that will change - for now let's say it doesnt).

Hero Object (Named Hero) Instance variable (boolean) SpdBuff = False

(For simplicity we will use every tick)

Every tick set Hero|Platformer|MaxSpeed = 250 + (25*Hero.SpdBuff)

The boolean goes between 0 and 1 - so the value will go between 250 and 275 in this case.

---------------------

Then I would set a timer that if Hero Boolean SpdBuff = true it reduces, if 0 (or less) set SpdBuff to False.

Here is a basic but working model

There are also lots of other factors that could be overwriting your buff that we won't be able to help you with because we don't see your code.

Already thank for help, i wanted to do the steps you made but when i press " set boolean" its somehow says i dont have an instance variable even tho i made on?? you now why and how to fix?

ah sorry i didnt know you have to made a new variable to make it a booleam variable nvm
