Help me with a scoring system?

Processing Coding Questions
1

hey everyone reading this!

so im wokring on a small project and im super stuck. How do I added a scoring system?

so there is a mouse (animal) that’s on the mouse(pc)

and I want him to collect cheese trough the game.

Now I’m wondering what the best way to do this is?
Im still a beginner and this coding confuses me a lot.

please help me out? :slight_smile:

(also this is polly the worst coding you’ve ever seen)

any other ideas are welcome ofc!!

EDIT: I didn’t read your question well. I thought you were asking how to create variables. I didn’t notice you already know how to do it

if you want to create a scoring system you need to create a variable. I recommend int. it stands for Integer and is a simple variable. It only accepts whole numbers and its range is quite big -2^32 to +2^32(~ 10^10 or a billion).

3

You define a variable by entering the variable type. (int, float, char, String, ArrayList, boolean,…) simple variables are those that start with lower case (int, float, char, boolean,…).

int i = 15;
float c = width;
int score = 0;

structure:
[type] [name] = [value]

4

by the way could you write what this program is supposed to do?

5

Aahh okay! thanks for the help!

Well the ‘player’ (mouse), needs to collect the cheese on screen. and with every cheese a point needs to be added :slight_smile:

6

Do you have a way to determine if the mouse eats the cheese?

7

no not yet, I have nu clue how to do it either

8

are both shapes spheres?

9

I think so? im not sure

10

if they are both circle you can try using (blured if you want to do it on your own)

if(dist(x,y,x2,y2) < r1 + r2) {
   x2 = random(width)
   y2 = random(height)
   score++;
}
11

ohh okay! thank you so much for the help!! :grinning:

12

I just realized that if I gave you an example like circle(x,y,2*r) you would get used to it and continue to do it this way instead of doing it the lazy way where int r (radius) is actually d (diameter, d = 2 * r)

13

aahhh okay! thanks!!
