How to stop game score to 0 ?

Michi9298

So basically im creating this game where if you tap squares your score increases by 1 point so on.And when you tap the triangles your score decreases by one point.

I want to know how to stop my score from going into -1,-2 etc when clicking the triangles and just to stop at 0.

(I hope that made sense :') ) I just want my score to stop decreasing from 0

Use an index attribute it only goes positive and stops at zero.

If you're using the Windows version you don't have access to the Index Attributed I'm afraid. In that case you'd want to add a rule to your scorekeeping like:

if score =< 0 then change score to 0

That is simplified and not actual behaviors but hopefully you get the idea.

If you've already got the attribute in use in a lot of places and don't want to replace it (though as @The_Gamesalad_Guru says, it's worth using an index if possible), you can also do this:

max(0,game.Score)

So if you're taking 1 away from the score, it would be:

max(0,game.Score-1)

etc.

Since he posted in the Mac thread, I'm assuming it's the Mac version but one never knows around here.
