A very basic scripting question

[Legacy_LostChangeling]

               

Suppose I have an integer variable declared beforehand in Module Properties --> Advanced --> Variables, like say 'abc'. With a value of 0 at first. Suppose I want this variable to increase by 1 everytime my PC completes some quest, until it reaches say 4. Thus each time a quest is completed a script will be run which goes:

 

If abc is less than 4, then increase it by 1.

 

How do you translate this into NWScript? I believe I did something like this before, except I can't remember now how I did it. I'm sure it can't be just like this:

 

if abc < 4

abc += 1;

 

No, I need to declare abc in some way, if I remember correctly. So how do you script this? Help, please?  '>

int abc = GetLocalInt(GetModule(), "VariableName");

if(abc<4)

  {

  abc++;

  SetLocalInt(GetModule(), "VariableName", abc);

  }

Yup, it worked nicely. Thanks, mate!  '>

 

By the way, if double plus means to increase the variable's value by one, does double minus likewise mean to decrease it by one?

Just found out elsewhere that the answer is yes. But thanks for your kind help all the same, friends!  '>
