An easier Scoring system

I think it can be done with a plugin already but a scoring system which you do not have to create any event's for it.Almost like the oldskool KnP scoring system.And the same goes for lives and counters.

I think it's simple enough as is.

For score:

add a text object

add a global variable and call it "score"

create this event:

+ System: Always (every tick)
-> Text: Set text to global('score')[/code:3m8kdybw]

[u]For lives:[/u]
add a tiled backdrop object and draw a 32x32 picture.
resize to 32x32 after editing so you see only one image.
add a global variable "lives"
create this event:
[code:3m8kdybw]+ System: Always (every tick)
-> TiledBackground: Set width to global('lives')*32[/code:3m8kdybw]

All the features of the KNP counter object are easily replicated with a variable and either a text object or tiled background object.

mm you mean the highscore table? There's example somewhere I think, not sure though and it's pretty simple already to do with events anyway like R0J0 said, and you can always use GameJolt API

Yes i know it's pretty simple already.but doing it like that would make it easier.I got the sdk of CS and im going to have a go at creating such a plugin.

I'm all for having more, and more plugs, but that really is uber simple.

Unless your going to do something like make it skinable, or use a sprite font.

Still I guess if your just starting out, that would be good for experience.

That's what i want to do,I want to create a scoring plugin with a feature where you could actually change the font and texture.Im not new when it comes to C++ and C# but im still quite new when it comes to creating plugins for CS.Hopefully i can create something decent lol.

I would like to see the ability to use bitmaps for the numbers in the score like in MMF.

Use the plugin SriteFont http://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=4078
