Show message when score achieved
I'm having a problem to call a function at certain scores, the problem is I'm adding points every second in update so I want to show a message at 10,000 then 20,000 and so on, the problem is when you kill an enemy you add 100 points also when you pick a power up you get 1000 points, so I can't use modulus (1000 % 0) to check on the score because this condition is not always met.
Then I used a condition like if(score > 10000){showMessage();} but the condition keeps creating the message until the next one (20,000) is met and so on, also tried with a bool to start and stop but either the bool keeps turning true/false or it doesn't get ready for the next condition...
I can't figure this one out :(
you are at one step of the solution, just add a nested if to check if you sent the message
//the bools
bool sentM10K = false;
bool sentM20K = false;
//few lines later..., fit this on your code
void CheckMessageSystem(){
if(!sentM10K){
if(score > 10000){
showMessage();
sentM10K = true;
}
}
if(!sentM20K){
if(score > 20000){
showMessageTwo();
sentM20K = true;
}
}
//and so on
}
you can change the !sentXK to a notSentXK just to increase performance and inverts the bools, but to make it readable I use this way
I see what you did there and it crossed my $$anonymous$$d at some point but didn't wanted to make that many bools for each level, I don't have so much levels here but could it be a way to make this solution work let's say for infinite levels?
Here's my final code:
IEnumerator IncreaseDifficulty()
{
while (true)
{
if (!level2Reached)
{
if (scoreNumber > 10000)
{
difficultySpawner = 7;
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel 2" + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
level2Reached = true;
}
}
if (!level3Reached)
{
if (scoreNumber > 20000)
{
difficultySpawner = 6;
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel 3" + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
level3Reached = true;
}
}
if (!level4Reached)
{
if (scoreNumber > 30000)
{
difficultySpawner = 6;
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel 4" + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
level4Reached = true;
}
}
if (!level5Reached)
{
if (scoreNumber > 40000)
{
difficultySpawner = 5;
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel 5" + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
level5Reached = true;
}
}
if (!level6Reached)
{
if (scoreNumber > 50000)
{
difficultySpawner = 5;
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel 6" + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
level6Reached = true;
}
}
yield return null;
}
}
I was solving this while you asking xd, check next comment
Edit: modificado tu codigo
int level = 0;
$$anonymous$$Difficulty = 7;
IEnumerator IncreaseDifficulty()
{
while (true)
{
for(int i =level; i < (int)score/10000; i++){
level++;//put this inside, or will increase one more...
//seem to decrease level each two, so on unpairs levels
StartCoroutine(Pop$$anonymous$$essage("Nivel " + level + "\n" + great$$anonymous$$essages[Random.Range(0, great$$anonymous$$essages.Length)]));
difficultySpawner = $$anonymous$$Difficulty - (int)level/2;
}
}
}
and, use a stop to execute once on each frame, like
yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame ();
just after the for, inside the while ;)
if you have a infinite messages, with the same "distance"* (or to can be estimated distance like exponential?) between each, you can do some most wise to handle this
lets do a linear distance (equal between each message) of 10000 points like you proposed first
int progress$$anonymous$$essage = 0;
void Check$$anonymous$$essageSystem(){
for(int i =progress$$anonymous$$essage; i < (int)score/10000; i++, progress$$anonymous$$essage++)
show$$anonymous$$essage();//universal message, to personalize it use some like show$$anonymous$$essage(i*10000)
}
and the personalized message is some like:
void show$$anonymous$$essage(int Data){
Text _text = GetComponent<Text>();
_text.text = "you reached the " + Data + " points";
}
use word distance to say "the points from the last message to the next"
Awesome, so just put the Check$$anonymous$$essageSystem(); at update and should work right? I mean problem was solved but I assume this is a most common problem and your answer I'm sure will help many people, thank you very much for your time :D
