-Events that occur in game

Coin System Event

• Global Variable on the event sheet

Name: Scoring
Type: Number
Initial Value: 0

• "Player" (Sprite 1) On collision with "Coin" on the event sheet

-"Once we're in the Edit action menu, we would need for it to add points to our global variable. So, set it to Add to, found in 'Global & local variables'

-Set the variable to scoring.

-In the Event Sheet, it should look like this:

"Player" On collision with "Coin": System: Add 1 to Scoring

-Destroy Coin

(This tells the game to Destroy Coin > Update Score > Refresh ScoreText)

Fundamentals: More than one event sheet

• Have an event sheet for each individual layout so, that you can add different effects for each one, while maintaining the variables you've worked with in previous layouts.
• This makes for a more dynamic gaming experience

Fundamentals: Creating Solids for each Sprite

• Always develop the habit of creating solids for each sprite
• Back track; see what objects shouldn't be solid
