Counts

Without seeing your work it is probably something like 

where your variable is called counter

Sorry I should have explained a bit better.

I am trying to make a game like this http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/2Z79DzzJY8w2R58bpftq14k/quiz.

So you just have to find the link between the names that you are given. So a user would click 4 names and see if they link to the correct category.

So basically at the moment I have 8 buttons (or 8 names). I need it so that the program does the following thing.

-When a user selects 4 buttons the system checks if they are the correct 4 linked names

-If not then the buttons reset.

-If they are correct then they are disabled and it explains why they are linked.

Hope this makes sense

Hi Andrew

here is a sample in SL1.  Wasn't sure if you clicked 1 button 4 times and got a layer, then clicked another button 4 times and got another layer.

Anyway this should help you work out the triggers you need - shout out if you need more help

 Just read your extra info...disregard my comment

Hi Wendy,

Thank for that! It kind of helped.

I need it slightly more complex than I though. I need it so that the counter resets when the user has selected 4 buttons. If they are the correct 4 buttons then a layer is showed. If not the buttons revert to the original state.

Thanks

Hi Andrew

I think I know what you need but can't quite get there...see attached, if you get the 4 buttons correct it gives you the right layer, if you select the 4 definite incorrect ones, you get the incorrect layer, its the combination of some correct and incorrect that I can't get in my head...

I think there might be a game template somewhere that works like this - I'll see if I can track it down for you

Good luck...please post if you work it out

Found these threads not sure if they'll help but they might give you some ideas

Thanks Wendy,

That has given me a little bit to think about.

Andrew, sorry if my response was a little simplistic - wasn't sure if you were a SL newbie.

Wendy is always very helpful - those Queenslanders!

Hope you get a solution.
