Help with scores!

[ChibiWurld]

is there any way to make it where like if someone gets a certain amount of points something happens?

ex. My Character scores 150,000 points and then goes to a new level

anyway to do something like that?

Thanks in advance

if(score >= the number you want){
something hapends
}

it says that, if the variable score is bigger or equal to the number you want, somenthing will hapend

[ChibiWurld]

well its not working..
is there anyway to make it where if the score is higher or equal than a designated number that it goes to a different scene?
I keep trying to work with it... maybe iv got the code wrong =/

_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (score >= 150000) {
_root.gotoAndStop("name_of_desired_frame");
delete _root.onEnterFrame;
}
}


Every frame we check to see if the score is greater than 150,000. If it is, we go to the desired frame label and stop checking the score.

well theres a problem. the game is only one frame long.
to see what i mean go here http://chibiwurld.homestead.com

Okay.

_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
Â# Â# Â#if (score >= 150000) {
Â# Â# Â# Â# Â#// Code for whatever you want to have happen goes here
Â# Â# Â# Â# Â#delete _root.onEnterFrame;
Â# Â# Â#}
}

hmm im not sure where to put it in the game. heres the scripts i have in my game


Character---Insance(spaceship)
------------------------------
onClipEvent(load){

moveSpeed=10;
_root.laser._visible=false;
laserCounter=1;
scrollx=_root.mainGround.ground._width/3;
scrollStart=false;
maxLasers=4;
depthCounter=1;
}




onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) and (laserCounter<=maxLasers)) {

laserCounter++;
_root.laser.duplicateMovieClip( "laser"+depthCounter, depthCounter );
_root["laser"+depthCounter]._visible=true;
depthCounter++;
if (depthCounter>maxLasers){
depthCounter=1;
}
}


if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
if (this._x<scrollx){
this._x+=moveSpeed;

} else {
scrollStart=true;
}

} else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
this._x-=moveSpeed;
}

if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
this._y+=moveSpeed;
} else if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
this._y-=moveSpeed;
}

}


onClipEvent (keyUp) {
if (Key.getCode() == Key.RIGHT) {
scrollStart=false;
}
}

-----------------------------
Bullet---Instance(laser)
-----------------------------
onClipEvent (load) {

laserMoveSpeed=20;
this._x=_root.spaceship._x+90;
this._y=_root.spaceship._y;

}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (this._name<>"laser"){
this._x+=laserMoveSpeed;
if (this._x>600){
_root.spaceship.laserCounter--;
this.removeMovieClip();
}

for (i=1; i<=_root.numEnemy; i++){
if (this.hitTest( _root["enemy"+i])){
_root.score+=100;
_root["enemy"+i].gotoAndPlay( 2 );
}

}
}
}
---------------------------
Enemy--Instance(enemy)
---------------------------
onClipEvent (load) {

function reset(){
this._x=600;
this._y=random(200)+100;
enemySpeed=random(4)+1;
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}

reset();

}

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {

if (_root.spaceship.scrollStart){
this._x-=enemySpeed+_root.mainGround.groundSpeed;
} else {
this._x-=enemySpeed;
}


if (this._x<-10) {
reset();
}


if (this.hitTest( _root.spaceship ) ){
_root.gotoAndStop ( "gameOver" );

}


}
------------
Frame one on a layer called control

numEnemy=5;

for (i=2; i<=numEnemy; i++){
enemy1.duplicateMovieClip( "enemy"+i, i+100 );

}
score=0;


Please help me and sorry for the long post

You can put my code on frame one of the main timeline, or you can adapt it to fit into one of the other onEnterFrame handlers, if you feel clever.

This here is simple, but how about saying:

if (score>=150000) {
level = (desired level);
}

if thats what you want to happen?
This script can go, in a button or a movieclip.. Anywhere..
Just put it in a handler...?

But its probably to simple?

i recreated this and put this in the spaceship after
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.score >= 150000){
_root.dowhatever
}
and in the enemy I made it:
if (this._x<-10) {
_root.score += 150000
reset();
}
and it worked
