okay since i haven't cogged for nearly 8 months i have forgot all the verbs and would like to know what to use to do this: i have a int in a cog called actor_sm.cog the int is called req. OKay then i have another cog called actor_bm.cog and when he gets killed i want the actor_bm.cog to add 1 to the int req in the actor_sm.cog, what verb should i use and how do i use it? thanks hope someone can understand this babble.

someone help please!

Since no one else has replied, I'll try.

I would send a trigger from the killed message of actor_bm to the actor_sm cog. And when actor_sm receives the trigger, increment req by 1.

The killed message of actor_bm:

killed:
#whatever you have there
Sendtrigger(GetLocalPlayerThing(), 500, -1,-1,-1,-1);
Return;

The trigger message in actor_sm:

trigger:
if(GetSourceRef() == 500)
{
req=req+1;
}
Return;


Make sure that no other trigger uses an ID of 500. -I'm not too sure what the standards are for trigger ids.

Hope that helps you.

Fiction must be more realistic than truth or no one will believe it.

thanks that helps a bunch i only used triggers once other than this so i don't know much about them
