I am making a game that is harvest moon like and i was wondering about the exact uses of the if statement could it be used for after three days if your charachter has watered the plants everyday for three days they are ready for harvest? and i am stumped on a time system..days hours minutes(i dont want to go on real time because it would take forever)

Your making a game but don't know if statements?

EDIT: Sorry that was kinda rude, but you gotta know how to program before you can program a game..

Anyways the next poster has better information... and good luck!

make the game day based.

20 mins = a day or somthing

or let the player change to the next day by say having a sleep option.

if statement would then work on the day number and other vars based on watering

hmm heres how I might do it in c

if (number_of_times_plant_watered >=3)
//your statements here
end

of course you may need to get more complicated because this will only check if the plant has been watered 3 times and doesn''t take days into account

if (plant.wateredDays >= 3) plant.readyToHarvest = TRUE;

How would they know you just said that you want to know how to check if they waters 3 days but you didn''t say how you where setting the watering and all that.. basically what you asked is

watch your language.....and i am not starting it already,
in a few years i just want to get it ready and everything.
and plus i am going to teach my friends C++ so we could
do things faster(diplomas mean nothing to me if you dont have enough sense to use what you learned...)
and plus I belive in having a sense of humor.

LOL, this is a funny topic. I think 5-10 minutes a day would be better for such a game. And you can always make it engery based.

Farmer has 100 energy. (100)
Farmer uses 35 energy. ( 65)
Farmer uses 35 energy. ( 30)
Farmer uses 20 energy. ( 10)
Farmer can''t do anything,
decides to sleep (make a button or something).
- End Of Day -

The user can sleep whenever he wants. You can make more tasks, with different costs. Upgrade total energy RPG-like.
