Score help

[crazykid2013]

Hey I'm trying to incorporate a scoring code into the current game...Could someone help me...Thanks!

On the main timeline where you duplicate your movieclip add a score variable at the top before the loop. Lets assume you name it score = 0;.

Now on the cross hair actions, where you have the if statement to check that if the mouse is released and is hit testing the tiki's, increment the score by one:

if(this.hitTest(_root["tiki"+i])&&_root["tiki"+i].dead==0)
        {
            _root.score++
            trace(_root.score)
            _root["tiki"+i].gotoAndPlay(2);
        } 

I added a trace() so that you can see the score incrementing as you played. Of course, you would just replace that with maybe a dynamic text box that display the score for you: _root.myScore.text = _root.score;.

For some reason it deletes all of the tiki's that are displayed on the current screen when you click. Could you like make a video or something showing the step-by-step? If not, thanks!

Here's another option...

Remove all the code from the movie clips. Including the timeline code on the tiki.

Create a text field on the stage, set the property to dynamic and use the variable 'score'.

Place this code on the first frame of the main timeline.

var MAIN = this;
tiki._visible = false;

function inits(num) {
	MAIN.score = 0;
	MAIN.num = num;
	for (var i = 0; i<num; i++) {
		var myTiki = tiki.duplicateMovieClip("tiki"+i, i+1000, tiki);
		reset(myTiki);
		myTiki.onEnterFrame = function() {
			this._x -= this.speed;
			if (this._x<0-this.minX || this._currentframe == 5) {
				reset(this);
			}
		};
	}
	startDrag(Crosshair, true);
	Mouse.hide();
	Crosshair.swapDepths(9999);
	Crosshair.onMouseDown = doShoot;
}

function reset(mc) {
	mc.dead = false;
	mc.minX = 0-mc._width/2;
	mc.speed = random(4)+3;
	mc._x = 600;
	mc._y = random(400);
}

function doShoot() {
	var playsounds = new Sound(this);
	playsounds.attachSound("shot");
	playsounds.start(0,1);
	for (var i = 0; i<MAIN.num; i++) {
		var myMC = MAIN["tiki"+i];
		if (myMC.hitTest(this._x, this._y, true) && myMC.dead == false) {
			myMC.dead = true;
			MAIN.score += 10;
			trace(MAIN.score);
			myMC.gotoAndPlay(2);
		}
	}
}

inits(5);
