Timer/Points Help!?

[MilkMan268]

Ok so I want to make a score box ( static text i guess), that after ever 30 frames it adds 1 point to the score box. I have a vague idea of how to do this, but I need some help, anyone? Action Script 2 by the way.

And the movies at 30fps.

And i was thinking could i add some actionscritp on the main timeline every 30 frames, thats like: ...+1..

**Sorry for the other post too**

No, dynamic textbox. Var: score

And the movies at 30fps.

Main timeline:

cnt=0;targ=30;score=0
onEnterFrame=function(){
	cnt++;
	if(cnt>=targ){
		score+=1;cnt=0;
	}
}

Untested

So is that place on every 30 frames, or just on the first one?
And what do I put on the first frame to reset the variables?

Just the first one
Any time you want to reset the variables, just use the first line of the code I gave

Dosen't seem to work, I did everything right. The instance I put as score? Isn't that correct

No, not the Instance Name. The var for the textbox

Yes! Everythings perfect now, but the stupid mouse effect thing, its an animation and I guess the timer is counting that too. Any fixes?

[MilkMan268]

Wait, thats one thing but another is how do I get it to stop, but keep the number in the box, so you can enter it into the leaderbaords?

Maybe something like, start that script on frame 2?
