Yes... I know I have asked this question before but...
How can I prevent a counter from resetting to zero every time I start or restart a new level?
Basically I'm using two counters, one default (resets to zero) and another which is accumulative (retains it's current value).
I'm using MMF 1.5
Thanks, Dave S.

You can either:
1) Make it a global object
2) Set it to always equal the score or lives or a global value, and change the global value instead of the counter
If wishes were fishes then we'd all smell like ladies' underwear.

Bo, tried the first suggestion as it seemed easier to do... worked fine when starting a new frame but the counter still resets to zero when restarting the current frame.

PS I must admit to not fully understanding your second suggestion.

I am not sure what you want, but you could save the values using ini.

there are global values you can set in the event editor
they will be remembered as long as the game it played not if its turned off.
You can use the global value instead of the counter but it wont show on screen
so always set the your counter = to the global values number.
easy peasy lemon squeezy.

I find the Global objects in MMF easier because you can give them a name (set counter to coins).
