end game

Need help. Final project for class. Have a game where two players choose to remove either 1,2, or 4 cubes from the screen. Need to figure out how to end the game when the player with the final choice has 4 or less cubes on the screen and have the message You win pop up.

You could use a number variable which keeps track of how many cubes are in play by setting it's value to the number of starting cubes, then subtracting 1, 2, or 4 as they are taken away. Then, add an event called "when a variable changes" and use the number variable as the variable. Inside the event, check to see if the number variable is 4 or less with an if statement.

Thanks for the suggestion but i am now more lost than I was before. I still can't get the game to end when there are 4 or less cubes left on the screen. I have a world variable as a list for the initial number of cubes say 30. i need the game to end when this list is down to 4 or less and announce which player is the winner.

Have an if method where you drag and drop your number variable into the if slot and select the <= option. Set that number to four. eg: number variable<=4

Now all you have to do is make an event for what happens when that happens. Make sure you put your if statesman in a infinity loop.

if number variable <= 4
you win opacity set to 100%
else
do nothing

No dice still won't work. No message and no end game.
