Display text when energy reaches 0

Questions & Answers

I just tried each and everything I knew, but my program wont work. It shows the
“You Lose” screen just when it decreases 1 NRG point. HELP!!!

var EnergyLoss = 1;
var EnergyLossTiming = 10;
var LastEnergyLossTime = 0;
var Energy = 100;

function Update(){
if((Time.time-LastEnergyLossTime)>EnergyLossTiming)
{
HealthConfidenceNRG();
LastEnergyLossTime = Time.time;
}
}

function HealthConfidenceNRG(){
Energy -= EnergyLoss;
if (Energy == -1);
{
Time.timeScale = 0;
LostTheGame = true;}
Debug.Log("Energy reduced to" + Energy);}

function OnGUI()
{
GUI.skin = newSkin;
GUI.Box (new Rect (0,1,100,30), "Energy" + ":" + Energy.ToString());
GUI.Box (new Rect (100,1,100,30), "Health" + ":" + Health.ToString());
GUI.Box (new Rect (200,1,100,30), "Confidence" + ":" + Confidence.ToString());
if (LostTheGame){
GUI.Box(Rect(Screen.width /2 - 100,Screen.height /2 - 100,250,200), "You Lose");
		
		//Make Main Menu button
		if(GUI.Button(Rect(Screen.width /2 - 100,Screen.height /2 - 50,250,50), "Main Menu")){
			Application.LoadLevel(MenuSceneName);
		}
		
		//Make Retry button
			if(GUI.Button(Rect(Screen.width /2 - 100,Screen.height /2 ,250,50), "Retry")){Application.LoadLevel(CurrentSceneName);}
}
}

var LostTheGame = false; //Make sure you have this
var nextTimeUntilLoseEnergy = 0;
var energyLossInterval = 1; //Every one second, you will lose energy
var Energy = 100; // How much energy we have
var EnergyLoss = 1; //How much energy we will lose

function Update()
{
   if(Time.time > nextTimeUntilLoseEnergy)
   {
     HealthConfidenceNRG();
     nextTimeUntilLoseEnergy = Time.time + energyLossInterval; //From Time.time, add any value. Once Time.time passes this value, it will call 'HealthConfidenceNRG();'
   } //This is more efficient since it uses less math
}
 

function HealthConfidenceNRG()
{
   Energy -= EnergyLoss;
   if (Energy <= -1) //No semicolon here. Also, make sure it is set to '<=' not to '=='
   {
      Time.timeScale = 0;
      LostTheGame = true;
   }
   Debug.Log("Energy reduced to" + Energy);
}

Let me know if you don’t understand a piece of the code. Just replace all your code (except for the OnGUI function) with my code.

One problem is on line 16:

if (Energy == -1);

The ‘;’ at the end of the line terminates the ‘if’ statement. That means the rest of the code in this function will be executed the first time HealthConfidenceNRG() is called. Remove the ‘;’ from the end of the line.
