Count how many objects are in selected state with an incremental variable
Hello, I have an object with a hover / selected state. I've used auto states to select / deselect when I click on an object.
I want to increment a variable when I click on this object to put it in...
Phil, of course, is correct. Incrementing and decrementing variables is always risky. It’s more reliable to count every time you need a change. Using a layer allows you to create one set of variables that will work for all your buttons. Everything else, do as Phil says.
I would change Nedim’s suggestion to do your changes when Button 1 is clicked, rather than relying on when the state changes to selected. Detecting state changes is not always reliable.
