Triple touch detection with specific functions for each click

[Qiijinn]

Ive been doing this for a while and i keep getting stumped, originally i tried to make an animesh character that gets increasingly frustrated the more you click it, with 3 stages, each click should make it say something new. Originally I tried to separate the individual arguements with  "else if" that didnt work so i tried making a specific integer that adds +1 when touch_start is triggered, can anyone help me out this is driving me nuts.

Create a global variable, clicks.

inside the touch event, increment clicks

Using if( clicks > someValue)  perform different action depending on the value clicks has achieved. Probably reset it after doing the venting activity @)

you might also need/want to use either a timer or llGetTime() to manage the ammount of time between clicks.

for example (not tested in-world, might have bugs.) :

integer gTouchNumber;

default
{
  touch_start(integer i)
  {	++gTouchNumber;
    float time = llGetAndResetTime();
    if(time>10.0) gTouchNumber=1;
    if(gTouchNumber>3) gTouchNumber = 3; // can change this depending on desired behavior.
   
    if(gTouchNumber==1)
    {	llSay(0,"Don't touch me.");
    }else if(gTouchNumber==2)
    {	llSay(0,"Knock it off!");
    }else if(gTouchNumber==3)
    {	llShout(0,"KNOCK IT OFF!!!");
    }else
    { // programming error.
      llOwnerSay("Programing error, unexpected touch number: "+gTouchNumber);
    }
  }
}

That did it! global variable worked like a charm, thanks LSL community you guys are the real OGs

Yeah, with the event-based nature of LSL it's almost impossible to do most things without global variables.
