experience points

[teenagegluesniffer]

I've been trying to get it so that users will have XP, I've tried many things, looked for tutorials; nothing seems to work. Does anyone know of a tutorial, or can explain something to me here please?
Thank you.

I don't think anyone would ever do a tutorial on that. You just have to log into your account and vote on 5 submissions.

I think he means experience as in "exp. points in a game", which he could probably find somewhere in the AS: Main if he digs around deep enough. Otherwise, I have no other answers for you.

var xp_guy1:Number = 0;

if(enemie1.hp<=0){
enemie1.dead=true;
xp_guy1+=100;
}

hard-coding is fun. let's not use variables and misspell "enemy".

weee!

Sorry, I meant in a game!
My problem with it is like, having levels with it. So once you reach like 200 xp you get to level 2, then once you get to 460 you get to level 3...etc...like that.

Well... you could just do something like...

if(xp >= xpNeeded){
//level up code
}

// That's a REAL simple way to do it.. not the most effective way, but simple. Then just reset their xp and xpNeeded afterwards... keep their actual total in a different variable if you need to display it. If their xpNeeded changes, just change it. Like, if after 5, they need 200 more (instead of 75 or whatever...) just do..

if(level > 5){ xpNeeded = 200}

or create a small formula to do it for you.

xpNeeded = level*100

or something like that.

This is the bare bones, easy to understand way to do it, but not always the best.

Hmmmmm..no.
Anyone else have a suggestion? I see what you are saying with this, but I can't seem to get it working. :\
Any other suggestions?

Do you know of a place that respawns easy-to-beat creatures?Doing that over-and-over helps.

Most "LEVEL UP!"games have a pattern with the amount of XP. you need.Like 20 then 40 then 60.Some are more complicated though.Like 999 then 1278 then 2006.It depends.

That's the most simple way possible to do it, if you can't get that working then you will fail miserably on the others.
