Reset Attribute?

never2nv

Here's an example scenario, let's say I'm making a platformer, the user has to collect say 10 coins to complete the level and move on to the next. I setup a collected attribute and a remaining attribute, I display them on the screen for the end user.

Now, when we hit a game over/loss scene, we'd reset coins collected to 0 as it'll always be set back to 0, but for remaining coins, it's not a static number so how could I reset it back to it's initial state when the scene resets?

I know I can go into each level and manually set it up to reset the remaining coins to 10 for level 1, 20 for level 2, etc. but looking for a more automated way to go about it than such labor intensive actions when I start having 10, 20, 30 levels etc lol.

you could make a value that gets that value when scene starts up. original coins to get = a, new check coins to get once =b.....now when scene starts a=b if scene reset b=a before the scene ends attribute....is ONE way to do it

but if the value is in the scene and not the game it will reset to the original number anyway and thats where i usually place values like that unless i have something in the scene that checks for how many things like that need to be collected
