Raising the value of a number control with an onClick function

[Visvalor]

function onClickDown(button, x, y)
window.truestrength.setValue();
end


I have a generic control with that script inside of it and an arrow going up, how does one set to add +1 to a number control with the name "truestrength" so that they click a button to raise their stat.

Also need to subtract from another number control called "statpoints" and make it where it only adds stat points if they have them available :P

This is how I would do it.




function onClickDown(button, x, y)
truestrength = window.getDatabaseNode().getChild("truestrength");
statpoints = window.getDatabaseNode().getChild("statpoints");

truestrength.setValue(truestrength.getValue()+1);
statpoints.setValue(statpoints.getValue()-1);
end

Also I am guessing at some point you want to not let it go into the negatives.



function onClickDown(button, x, y)
truestrength = window.getDatabaseNode().getChild("truestrength");
statpoints = window.getDatabaseNode().getChild("statpoints");

if statpoints.getValue() > 0 then
truestrength.setValue(truestrength.getValue()+1);
statpoints.setValue(statpoints.getValue()-1);
end
end

As always Joshuha comes through!

Woot woot! It works!
