here's a simple example i posted a little wile ago, hope it helps.
Health test.a2w

I havn't looked at the world above since i was too lazy , and I'm still new and only been programming for about 1-2 monthes so there maybe better answers but... but how about make it the object have 10 health, and when you click them, they lose 1 health, and decrement it by 1 when you click on it, so its takes 10 clicks for it to die. Or if you would like it to be at 100 health and lose say 10 health per click, make it something like this (this isn't the exact code, this is just off memory):

When mouse clicked on "object"
Set "health" value to ((health) - 10)

This is my game. I have stuff set up if you can please just tell me how i can make it so i have to click the native american 10 times for him to die. and so if the native american hits me he knocks my hp down to 99 and more. Right now its just a 1 hit kill for the native and the native only knocks the cow boys hp down to 99 and no more... Please help

okay I'm going to be posting my newish version of the world. I got the idian's hp working correctly now its the cowboys. His health just drops all the time once the idian hits him once and its just ugh ive tried many things. Yet when i dont loop his hp going down it doesnt go down right. So i need my cowboys hp to go down a little when the idian comes in contact with him and i want my 3d graphic numbers on the screen to match up with the amount of hp the cow boy has. 900= 90 in 3d graphic. Help please\?

I didn't look at your program yet, since class ends in about 2 mins and takes a long time for the school to process downloads, like 2 min for 15 MB files. But from what you posted, make it health loop like you did, but just make a pause at the end of the loop, say "2 seconds" so theres enough time for the indians arm or attack to be pullin away so it doesn't loop again until the 2 seconds are up. May not be the best answer, but still works, for the most part.

The 1000 loop with continue to degrade his health until done. I recommended getting rid of the loop and put the decrement by 1 into a If/Else statement and your cowboy.die into one as well. if you create a boolean variable and name it something like "Cowboy dead" and set it to false, you can place it into the true part of your new If/Else statements then create another if/else into the else of the first and drop the cowboys health counter into it and say if its =0. i have some pictures if you get stuck.
