i want my game 2 times trail . i can't replay once my game reaches to 0.

look the below code will never fill the goal and life never decreases . because once it goes to frame2 after executing game logic in frame1 . the value of life becomes 2 again . it never decreases. Any idea or suggestion to fix the issue ?.

// frame2

var life:Number=3;

life=life-1;

lifetxt.text=String(life);

trace(life);

if(life!=0) {

Replay_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_44);

function fl_MouseClickHandler_44(event:MouseEvent):void

{

gotoAndStop("frame1");

life=life-1;

}

If you are repeating this code in each frame then the value will always start as 3 then immediately become 2. If you want the value to remain what it was already then you need to only declare it once.

var life:Number;

if(life == null) life = 3;

Ned Murphy sir

i could not implement as your code . anyhow for better idea i have attached screenshot

actually my game start is in "frame1" and ends "scoreframe" .. so the life code is in score frame . so it sends the code to gotoAndStop("frame1");

after executing the frame2, 3,4 it comes and score frame again and updates life=3 again . So the values 2 never decreases . any idea to fix the issue ?

Yes, I already provided an answer for that. Do not keep declaring the value = 3 every time you enter a/the frame. Use the code shown below in 1 frame only. Change the score value wherever you wish but only declare it once and do so without assigning it a value...

var score:Number; // this declares the variable but it does not have a numeric value yet

if(isNaN(score)) score = 3; // this checks to see if the score has a numeric value and if not it assigns it one. If it does, even zero, then it leaves it alone.

This way the code will not reassign a new value to the score each time you move to a frame with score code in it.
