Buttons clicked counter

Hiall,

I need a bit of help with actionscript.

Basically I have a kind of shoot the duck game I created, there are 8 ducks and each one have a button so when each duck is shot an ad comes up.

Now the client wants something to happen when all the ducks have been shot, so I created this bit of AS which I put in the main timeline.

var count;
function doCount(){
count++;
if (count >= 8){
gotoAndPlay ("goose");
}
}

On each of the buttons, the AS is:

on (press){
_parent.ducks1_mc.duck_7_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
_parent.ducks2_mc.duck_7_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.promos_mc.promo_07_mc.gotoAndPlay(2);
_root.doCount();
bt_7.enabled = false;
}
But everytime I shoot one it goes to "goose" when I want it to go there only when all the ducks have been "shot".

hope someone could help me.

Cheers

use a trace command to see if your count variable is working.

under 'count++;' put
trace(count);

should give you some answers

hello
i have designed a game with four buttons... which wen clicked score must increase in the dynamic score box.... i have used this script

on (release) {
score = Number((score))+50;
}

it is not working wen i click on the button at run time i get a msg " NAN " in the score box... wt should i do....

i also want the button to disappear wen clicked on it n score should be displayed

it will be great if someone would help me with this script

thank

Hi Ryan,

I've placed the trace in the place yu told me and the out put says NaN everytime i click or shoot a duck.

Bit lost here, cheers!

That's a good thing! It means using trace worked because it's telling us that 'count' is not returning a number (NaN = Not a Number). To fix this change:

var count;

to

var count:Number = 1;

I'm thinking after you change that the trace will return a number

@kerinaonline - same problem, add var score:Number = 1; somewhere on your main timeline

Thanks Ryan,

I'll try it out tonight and will keep you posted.

Cheers,
