How can I make both an endurance upgrade and an efficiency upgrade?

[Bardy_2913]

I can make both of these but they both interfere with each other. Can someone help me?

[Captain-Gim]

Anyways the endurance upgrade can be used with a movement meter. Have a defualt endurance like 5 energy per second, and then have your vending maching on transmit to channel and connect it to another movement meter that does 2.5 energy per second. (I can add pictures if needed).

Endurance increases the Energy Cap while Efficiency makes you run using less energy.

You know my Energy Cap guide? Make that thing. Now, duplicate the IIM and make the second one like this: [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.57.18 PM] [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.57.24 PM] Make your Vending Machine. Wire the Vending Machine to the SECOND IIM, activating it. Make another overlay, instead with these blocks: [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.58.44 PM] The other settings are the same. Wire the VM to the first Overlay, hiding it. Wire the VM to this second one, showing it. You’re done! -@…

How to make an Efficiency Upgrade Difficulty 3/10

Hey y’all! Another guide, coming out! First, make the first movement meter. [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.45.03 PM] Make a second. [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.45.35 PM] Now, make a Vending Machine like this: [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.46.00 PM] [Screenshot 2023-09-23 at 2.46.46 PM] Transmit on Channel Section Wire your Vending Machine to your First Movement Meter, deactivating it. Wire your Vending Machine to your second Movement Meter, activating it. That’s it! -@Blizzy

The main idea for Endurance is to have a property increase when an upgrade is bought and check what property amount (endurance lvl) the player has to make them not ovveride each other.
(Ex. player buys upgrade that increases energy cap from 5,000 → 10,000 and buys an upgrade that increase energy cap from 1,000 → 5,000)

For the efficiency upgrade, it’s more or less the same but with movement meters.

Can you please add pictures?

[Captain-Gim]

Ya sure, but you should check out the other guides; because, it’ll take a while.

[Captain-Gim]

The ones on the left are defualt and the ones on the right are the upgrade ones. For the vending machine wire a awire from the machine to the upgrade saying, “When item purchased → activate” (Whatever the device is).

[Bardy_2913]

do you have to deactivate the manager for energy on the left

[Captain-Gim]

Yes you do. (I do it just to be safe). And don’t forget to mark a solution.

[Bardy_2913]

when I tried that it said Item purchased — activate manager or item purchased — clear item from inventory

[Bardy_2913]

[Captain-Gim]

Nevermind, I read it wrong. (sorry) So with the endurance upgrade you can’t deactivate it, but it’ll still work. You only need to connect the wire from endurnance vending machine to the endurance upgrade device.

[Haiasi]

yes, youll also need some blockcode (maybe multiple counters but itll take lots of memory if you make multiple upgrades so blockcode is the most viable option)

basically the block code from a trigger (use a counter-linked property)

wires

(Vending Machine) Item Purchased --> (Trigger) Trigger

Set Property "Endurance/Efficiencylvl"
Value +1

if Get Property "Endurance/Efficiencylvl" = #
do Broadcast Message On Channel "increasecap/activatedeactivate_mm"

else if Get Property "Endurance/Efficiencylvl" = #
        do Broadcast Message On Channel "increasecap/activatedeactivate_mm"

repeat

[Bardy_2913]

I don’t understand blockcode.

[Bardy_2913]

But it works thanks for helping Haiasi and Captain Gim!

Essence of Block Code: An Introduction to Variables and Logic

Introduction: Welcome back! In the last chapter of Essence of Block Code We worked with the “math” section of the block code section and used the activity feed block. Variables are pretty important. Although they can be overshadowed by properties (which we will work with in the next chapter), we should still remember to use them. Logic crates are crazy useful. If you don’t know what I mean, variables and properties have almost no use without them! That’s why I’ll be teaching you how to use log…

this should help
includes the basics of blocks and logic gates which is what you use here

[Captain-Gim]

Yep, anytime. Glad I could help.
