  Hey guys!

  I'm having a bit of trouble with a game that I have created,

  Basically its abit of a silly money drop game, but I want the objects dropping to gradually increase the longer the game goes on to make it harder.

  I can think of a few ways to do this, like making the game wait 15 seconds and then starting a whole new script event to make new objects. But I think this seems like the wrong way of going about it. But I'm sure there is a way which In which to gradually increase the system spawn speed. I have looked all over tutorials and the forum to get some advice but I cant really find anything on this specifically.

  Basically so far I Have

  System > Wait 1.5 second > system > Create object.

  Im sure there is an expression that I can use in here which will gradually increase the spawn time, I just cant figure out what it is.

  Can anyone help? I've tried just putting a *1 on the system time to see if it will gradually increase, but its not working.

  Here is my CAPX file.

  Many thanks,

  Lewis

  Hey guys,

  I'm new to Construct 2 - I've been trailing around the internet for tutorials and help to create what I have so far, which has been very helpful. Although I can't seem to find anything to help my latest problem. I'm creating a money drop sort of game where the player has to catch objects to proceed onto the next stage, although I can't seem to figure out or make my game pause when the player has no health - so the high score doesn't get decreased by any enemies after you already die. Then display a message, and ask the user to use an input to restart the game. Ive tried a bunch of different tutorials out there, such as Rex's pause plugin but no luck so far!

  This is what I have - imageshack.us/photo/my-images/812/codesofar.jpg

  I can't seem to figure out how to pause the game - and also the game will not make the button appear when the players health's variable is below 10.

  Any help on this would be very much appreciated! I understand its probably a bit of a noob question.

  Many thanks guys!! Have a good Easter
