Hello everyone,

I'm trying to find a way to trigger a Scene Director when the score increases by exactly 3 points (for example, in basketball when a triple is made). The idea is that the Scene Director would play an animation for the "triple" before the score updates on screen.

I can currently achieve this using Dashboard, but I'd really like to do it directly in Visual Logic to get it done automatically.

Has anyone set this up before or knows the best way to do it?

Thanks in advance!

There's a lot of discussions about this if you search ".playrange" you'll find a number of topics.

Here's one example.

Hello!

I meant using Visual Logic, not scripts. I have been looking for a long time trying to make it with Visual Logic but I haven't found one discussion.

In XPression Version 11.5, we added on OnSetText visual logic block that lets you trigger a scene director when text changes in a scene. You can use that new block, combined with a subtract block to evaluate if your new score is 3 more than your old score, to trigger a specific scene director.

Oh, I see! My license only allows version 10.x

Let me know if you want to try it with script, its a very small script you can copy and past in your current version.

Hey there Simon, that video link doesn't work no more. Do you have another video source?

Yes! That will be amazing! My goal is that if the score changes by 3, trigger a scene director.
