How to make it so when some actors collide with floor 3 times, the game will end? (change scene)

Hi @justinodunn One way: make an integer attribute, lets call it NumColl, leave it at 0 to start.

--Adding to your collide rule:

Rule: When actor overlaps or collides with actor of type floor
Rule: When NumColl
Change Attribute NumColl to NumColl+1
Otherwise
---end game sequence, whoever you have, maybe:
Change scene Game over

thank you!! but any idea how to display the number of times it collided with floor for the user? cheers

Sure, make your actor to display the number of times, place it on-screen; and in its Rules put a Display Text behaviour.

Then via the expression editor, select NumCol as its value. :-)

Btw, have you gone through the GS manual, Justin? you can pick up a lot of tips and tricks from it. Can be found under Help tab at the top of this page. Good luck!
