  Hi all, I would like a bit of help regarding an issue I'm having with my shop.

  I have built an in-game shop, in which I can buy different in-game features, and use these during game play. The problem that I am having is that while I can make selections from the bottom item to an item above( ex first skip, then slow), I cannot do the opposite (first slow then skip). Would it be possible for someone to take a look at that in order to help me fix the issue?

  Here is the capx of my work so far : https://www.dropbox.com/s/utee9sockkxx8 ... .capx?dl=0 .

  Thanks to all in advance <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

  Assumed sections from the event sheet causing problems :

  

  Pictorial explanation of what is happening :

  Step 1: Link to shop is selected from menu and shop is displayed as such:

  

  Step 2: Player buys items - resulting in something similar to this:

  

  Step 3: Player decides to use third item as an aid during game. Resulting in this:

  

  Step4: Player changes his/her mind and decides to use the first item from the list as aid. Resulting in this:

  

  Step5: Player changes his/her mind again, and wants to use second item as aid. However he/she is unable because this does not work. Player is now very sad (like this cat).

  Hi guys,

  I'm building an in-game shop, which overall works quite decently however I am having a few small difficulties.

  1)What is the best way to remove buttons that are not being used?

  2) Once the item is bought (and coins reduced from the global variable), how do I prevent coins from being reduced when selecting the power-up, to be used during game play?

  Managed to solve it - my method was to save at the end of the game layout (on end of layout - save as 'game'). Then load the values in the menu screen.

  Problem Description

  ____ I am following the steps in this tutorial https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4839/creating-your-own-leaderboard-highscores-easy-and-free-php-mysql in order to save and get the highscores as required. However at around half way through, instead of getting the values in the database being displayed, I'm getting '0'. I have used the same method previously and it worked perfectly fine.

  LittleStain - yes that is the idea. Check if the values in the local storage as less than the global variables, and if so update the local storage to the global variable. How do I go about doing that pls?

  yodason45 - I think I got to that part.

  Hi all,

  I am having a weird problem with a game I'm trying to develop. I would like to display the coins earned, games played, and the highest level achieved by the player in the menu screen (using local storage) . However for some reason, the values seem to be getting lost (all values (global variables) are reset to zero) after I lose a game. What is the best way to solve this issue?

  Tried that. Unfortunately it did not work. Can you specify at which event do I add that? - Tried adding to the last one. but did not work.

  Edit - Made it work - added the set text to the 3rd event.

  Hi all, I am using this https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1461/how-to-use-the-localstorage-plugin tutorial as a guideline for a project I have. However I am having a problem locating ways to display the amount of coins. What is the best way to do that?
