I’m having trouble with code that is adding bullets multiple times.
The error I’m getting is, if you buy a gun (comes with 6 bullets) then a clip (6 bullets) , another 6 bullets get added to the inventory
My hunch is that the gun / bullet clip are adding every time the stats screen is checked
Is there a way to stop these bullets multiplying like this?
With the following example, 1 clip and the gun = 12 bullets, instead you get 18, I assume the gun’s bullets are being added again every time
*goto top
*if (gun = false)
*selectable_if (gold >= 10) #I'd like to buy the Gun
“A Mark 1 Enfield revolver. This packs a punch even Sir Malcolm would be jealous of” says the shopkeeper, his placid eyes twinkling a little.
*set empty_inventory false
*set gun true
*set bullets true
*set bullets_number +6
*set gold -10
*goto top
*selectable_if (gold >= 5) #I'd like to buy clip of bullets
“Yes, if you are going to shoot things it’s worth going for it” says the shopkeeper.
*set empty_inventory false
*set bullets true
*set bullets_number +6
*set gold -5
*goto top
I can paste in the startup file and the stats file, they don’t have any bullets adding bits though
I just tested it on dashing don ,buying the gun creates 6 bullets
Buying the clip, 12!
Here is the full shop code if that is useful?:
