Can't give points to players

Nakero

this is a part from my code where I try to give 10000 points,

menu_fast_reset()
{

for (;;)
{
        
        self waittill("reset_fast");
        self.score+=10000;
        self notify("close_menu");

}
}

When I trigger 'reset_fast' i get the 'close_menu' notify but not the points
help plzzz

@Nakero77 What is the caller of the menu_fast_reset() function?

Nakero

JezuzLizard Im new to GSC so correct me if im wrong but menu_fast_reset() is a thread that should be inicialized since i write

menu thread menu_fast_reset();

few lines above, right?

JezuzLizard since i get the ''close menu'' notify i dont think its a problem with the function, it might be related with the self.score tool

JezuzLizard

@Nakero77 Well if the menu is the caller than self is the menu. You are trying to do menu.score += 10000;. If you want to set a player's score you call the function on a player so self will be the player.

JezuzLizard didn't undertood tbh, what i need to change exacly?

inicialize the thread as
player thread menu_fast_reset();

????

@Nakero77 I don't know what your codebase looks like so I don't know the exact answer. All I know is from the examples you've given me you are trying to set the score of a menu not a player. Either pass the player as self by making a player the caller, or pass a player as an argument and do player.score.

JezuzLizard i changed
self.score+=10000; into player.score+=10000;
but still getting nothing :(((
