Hi everybody, I was hoping to get some hints or advice that will point me in the right direction in creating the game below. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I'm new to SL scripting but I have some experience with programming in Java. My goal is to create a basic text game in which a user can click on an object(e.g. a piece of paper) and "play" the math game, which amounts to say 5 math problems. The game would be timed and the math problems would save the number of correct and time to complete after the user finishes.
For example
1+1 = __ (correct answer = 2)
2+2 = __ (correct answer = 4)
3X4 = __ (correct answer = 12)
4 mod 2 = __ (correct answer = 0)
8 mod 3 = __ (correct answer = 2)

Perhaps multiple choice answers with buttons for each answer? Floating text is easiest for both question and answer, but you could use textures instead with some work (search for XyText I believe it is called). You could probably also do it with llDialog() if you want to let multiple residents participate at once and don't mind a little dialog window instead of a pretty picture board.

all depends on how you want to display the game, and how you want users to repond....
simplest would be a large list of questions, along with a list of answers to check against... list llListRandomize llListen llSay llTimerEvent those are the functions you'll want to read on _____________________

:0 if new to lsl, it is 'state-based' programming - slightly confusing at first, but easy enough to adapt to. basically usually you only need a 'default' state to run simple things; more complex scripts can utilize multiple states to piece up some operations. (but basically, if you can cram everything into one state, then that's best...
 lsl wiki should have plenty of sample scripts and info... http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/State that's just for the basic basic script structure; after that, it's mostly all the 'same ol' programming', albeit within some pretty strict limitations... ;0 but sometimes it's good to have a wall to push against. good luck, have fun! _____________________
