I don't think FPSC Scripts let you affect external stuff such as a .txt sorry,

The better question is why

But this could be used for more then that... people should request help with scripts instead of commands. If you want an enemy death counter that is perfectally doable, you just cant write it. If you want to show it after the level is over or before you can do that also... you just can't write it.

@Merranvo

Is it possible to have a variable, or even a condition such as "QUANTITY" within a script add 1 to itself each time it runs?

Hmm....that's got me thinking-this could be used for something more, but I don't think it is possible to actually CHANGE an external.txt or .fpi-it can RUN an external .txt or .fpi, but I don't think it could change one. Hmmm, I will have to mess around a bit and see if I can figure anything out.

I don't think it's possible for an fpi script to increment a value (I'm talking about within itself, not an external file) but I'm not that good with fpi. If it could, an external script or program could access that fpi and the information could be useful.

Just a thought. I'm sure Merranvo knows.

Yes but still, the fact remains that FPSC cannot change anything within the .fpi or .txt file, which I assume is what Billwaa wants.

:activated=1:incstate=1,activate=0


I have this in tutorials de scripting in Revial: Teh FAQ as counter or CNT... really easy to implement and does do counting (fun to count with numbers!)

Just as further explanation, you need an action when the counter reaches x number, so :state=5:plraddhealth=-500 for instance, after the script has been 'activated' 5 times the plr dies.

Understood. Thanks Merranvo.

Yes, Tom... the more I think about it, you're right. The fpi cannot track the number or record it, even to itself. It is really just a dumb script. If/then, condition/action. The value of any given variable is decided only as the script runs, and is not even stored in memory. Actually, there are not any variables. If state were a variable as well as a condition/command, it might be used in such a way. Oh well.

state is used as a variable, as is activated. Just not as a mathematical variable. And you set this up with multiple scripts running in chairs or tables. It can track the number, as show above, but it can not record it...

I really don't understand what the discrepancy is...
