Reverse Score Counter? Race?

Archive: 7 posts


basically what i'm looking to do is start at a given score and have the players score decrease the longer they take to make their way through the level, exactly what the race gates do, but i don't want race gates visible in my level, for the score counter in world tweaks you can set it to increase the score every second, i'm wondering if there's a way to reverse that to decrease the score every second? hoping this makes sense2011-01-26 01:17:00

nvm, i figured it out, just giving a score of 10,000 upon entering and then a negative score counter based on seconds right after that to start counting down, feel free to delete this mods2011-01-26 01:29:00

this brings up another question though, is there a way to make the score counter NOT display the score whatsoever? only in the upper left on the main score, because right now there's a flash -10 every second which is annoying, the counter is set to NOT display over the play, but it's still displaying elsewhere on the screen, i want to hide those little scores that pop up whenever it changes2011-01-26 01:35:00

I don't think so, otherwise the player may get confused as to why they're loosing score.
Or creators could cheat to get the rop score in their levels w/out players really noticing.

hmmm, well if it wasn't being displayed it would simply act as a timer counting down like a race, but without the gates, the constant -10 popping up every second is what's going to confuse the player, i guess i might have to put in race gates, even though my level is one of stealth and not running through it as fast as possible which is what the race gates encourage, that's why i wanted another method of a reverse score timer.2011-01-26 01:59:00

You can always use a timer that counts down until the end of the level and give them a score according to how much time is left in the timer using the scaled option of the score giver.

But I think I saw a thread where rtm said that the scaled option is broke in play mode so you may have to wait for a patch to fix it, it still work in play mode though.
