Points for speed?

Archive: 5 posts


Anyone know a way to rig the logic so that a player get's points awarded according to how quickly they complete a task? (Fast time = high score). Ideally an analogue based system so that scores scale in conjunction with a timer.

Awarding a certain score at the start of the task and then deducting X points for every second counted down doesn't work in the context of the level as the player will have already earned points from earlier in the level and I want them to retain the value of that score, no matter how they perform in the speed task.

the timer can be set to "on" or "start count up" as long as it is inverted. the counter is set to one and resets itself.
as long as it isnt activated 2 times within 1 second it shouldnt cause any issues.
score giver is obviously set to scale per second.

evret's solution is perfect, although you could use a system which gives some points and then lowers them until you're done, just make sure you can't lose more than you gave using a counter which tracks how many times you lowered the points.2012-08-15 20:04:00

But then it looks less impressive. evret's solution is less messy and much more professional, since it puts more control in the creator over how fast the points decrease and other parameters.
