Perhaps conjureds cash system is right for you. It's good for learning about variables and such (at least, it was what helped me wrap my head around them)

The last thread deals with destroy scripts, so it may be suitable.

v109 the intro to FPI variables ... back in the day...
lol

The variable system has changed a little since then.
Try this
  for a destroy script that will increment a kill count variable.

Then you will need an entity to run the counter and do its thing accordingly, which could be something like this
  for declaring the variable, setting its initial value, then checking its value to work your magic when it gets to your desired number. (in this case 3)
Of course, in this example, you would need a WinZone placed in your map.
The entity running the counter script would need to be invulnerable (health=0), be immobile, and have its Always Active? set to YES.
Having it always active ensures that the script will be running its check no matter how far away the player is from the entity.
We wouldn't want to declare the variable in the destroy script, because we only need to do it once, not every time we get a kill.

For your needs, we might increment the count by 10 or 25 or whatever score you want that entity to give for destroying it.
Separate destroy scripts could be made for many values.
Then, your entity script might display the value rather than using the winzone as in my example.
I'll leave all that coding for your modificatoions of the scripts.

I hope this helps

Conjured is da man for scripting.

THEORY - you know everything but nothing works. PRACTICE - when everything works but don't know why. For me, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and I don't know why.

Ok Flatlander, you talked me into it.

Here is the
  to display a score.
And
Here is a +10 points destroy

And
Here is a +25 points destroy

So,
There are the basic scripts for an example of a scoring system.
This example is intended for characters, so you will need to edit the destroy scripts to use...

:state=1:destroy

... for non-character entities.

Anything I release is for commercial and/or personal use. (use it how you want)

Ok Conjured thanks for the response. The first script you posted, Is that a counter for each life or does the counter stay with the same amount of kills each time you respawn.

The variable should hold its value for the life of the level.
You would need to allow for score resets each level.
Unless there was a change in an update that I missed.
I have been away from FPSC fpr awhile, so I missed a bunch of updates to the engine and the latest fpi changes.
If you want to reset the value in the level then just use the setvar action again.

Thank You Conjured Entertainment
I used your older version some time ago and made a pretty good bodycount style hud display with counter. The variables hold through all levels and continue to add until reset.(game end or restart)

It has been great at making quick shot'em up games.
Thanks again

Awesome!
Thanks for updating me about the update.
That changes alot of things now we can pass a variable value through levels.
I've been away too long, and I am really glad to be back.
FPSC is so awesome now. (THANKS LEE!)

Hey, I hope Conjured sees this, how would you reset the kill count for each level? I'm sure it's an easy task, I just can't seem to come up with it.

@ The Master D
In the "loadingpage.fpi" for that particular level you would insert something like this...

The "setvar=xxx 0" resets it back to zero.

Almost forgot, you can use triggers also for a reset.

Okay, I'll probably just throw that in a trigger zone. I do have to ask this though, do I need it set up that the player walks through the zone in order for this script to work or can I just put the trigger zone outside of the map to run automatically?

Also, I'm working on re-writing these scoring scripts for my own uses and when I use the "dimvar" command and check syntax in FPI EditPad, it senses that this is an invalid command. Is that because it has yet to be added into the program diction or is this command for use with a mod?

If you write it like this:
:state=0:dimvar=killcount,setvar=killcount 0,state=1
you needn´t go through the zone.
If you write it so:
:state=0:dimvar=killcount,state=1
:state=1,plrwithinzone=1:setvar=killcount 0,state=1
then you must go through the zone

Also try my fpiEditPad command update, there are all commands from 1.2 downward

For new updates in futur look at the last page of fpi pad thread sometimes.

All methods work depending on your scripts. A trigger placed right where the player starts is easiest to do. Something like..

Not tested, but if this works you can place these anywhere in your levels.
