Count something, then say something IF...

**Count something, then say something IF... -** 05-10-2011, 10:16 PM

Hi there,

I'm working on a small assignment and what I want to do is count the number of times that a wolf chases a rabbit, then have it say something like "That was easy" if the wolf took 10 steps or less, and say "That was tough but worth it" if it took more than 10 steps.

I'm also having trouble keeping the wolf above ground when it tries to eat the rabbit. Not sure how to fix that.

If anyone would like to help, with simple instructions it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

P.S. I'm using Alice 2.2

Make sure your wolf is oriented to the ground, and then turn it around to the rabbit.

For the dialogue thing, include a variable that increments by 1 every time the wolf takes a step inside the wolf walking method. Then inside your catch method, put an if/else saying if said variable is more than 10, wolf say this dialogue. Else, say the other dialogue.

Yep. The part where the wolf says something should look like the following considering that you have variable called steps that counts the number of steps.

Code:

if(steps <= 10)
{wolf.say("That was easy");}
else
{wolf.say("That was tough but worth it.");
}

Hey i am having the exact same troubles, i am kinda confused about the variable "steps" part. I created one but it doesn't seem to be doing the job, could you explain this part by any chance?
