Add points when player passes through something + Timer

Question

Before we start, let me just put this out there. I started using Unity yesterday, and know little to none coding. With that said, here is the problem.

I have a car game with a bunch of ramps and stuff.

I want to have rings of some sort floating, after the ramps, so you can jump through them and earn points.

I also want a timer, so if you don't score the required points to pass a level, you go to a loose scene. If you score enough points, you go to the win scene.

I have no idea of how to even start to go about this.

Thanks in advance.

You can make use of Invoke to create a lose timer. You can make use of OnTriggerEnter to add score and check for win conditions. You can make use of tags to check if the trigger is a "Ring" tagged trigger.

This script could be placed on your car but you probably want to change the Win and Lose functions.

var score = 0; var goal = 10; var timeLimit = 30;

Invoke("Lose", timeLimit);

function Lose() { enabled = false;

 // Load scene or do any other losing presentation.
 Application.LoadLevel("LoseScene");

function Win() { CancelInvoke("Lose"); enabled = false;

 // Load scene or do any other winning presentation.
 Application.LoadLevel("WinScene");

function OnTriggerEnter(other : Collider) { // If you have no other triggers, // you can ignore the tag check.

 if (!enabled || other.tag != "Ring") 
     return;

 if (++score &gt;= goal) 
     Win();

}
