How do I record a list of players?

[Le711]

I am trying to do a game where we can use the Text Input box to key in the Player name and when I clicked the Submit button (black colour) it will record the Player name at the backend and I can continue to key in the next player’s name.

Then after the system record all the Players, I can use the Next button (green colour) go to to the next Player on the list and Back button (blue colour) to go to the Previous Player on the list.

Thanks a lot for the help!

Breaking down a problem:

Let’s say you want to create a gun in your game and do not know how to approach it. Asking here how to do a gun will most likely yield limited answers of limited usefulness - such a broad game mechanic can be understood in many different ways, and listing them all is too big an endeavor for anyone to do.

It is your job to break it down a higher level problem into simple logic fits your vision and can be expressed through events: After all, only you know exactly what you want your game to become.

For example, the mechanic “a gun” could be broken down by one like this:

• When the key X is pressed, you want a bullet to be created.
  • In events: When key X is pressed, create bullet object
• A bullet should be shot in the direction of the nearest enemy
  • In events: When a bullet is created, pick the enemy object nearest to the player object, and rotate the bullet towards the enemy object
• A bullet should always move in the direction it was shot towards
  • In events: Add a force towards the angle of the bullet to the bullet
• When an enemy or wall is hit, the bullet should be deleted
  • In events: When the bullet is in collision with the BulletTarget object group, delete the bullet
• When an enemy is hit, its health variable should be decreased by 1 or 2 randomly
  • In events: When the bullet is in collision with the Enemy object, remove RandomInRange(1, 2) from variable Health.
