some kind of counter

jive turkey

im trying to make a light display to loop through 2 different events, the theme is footballs teams and the light display will have michiganstate helmet and u of m helmet butting together
i want ms to win then then program loops only the second time u of m wins

i was thinking having the have some kind of internal counter that resets itself where on 0 ms wins and on 1 u of m wins and after one the counter resets itself to 0 i just dont know how to write that in anywhere

i can visualize something like


helmets rise:
"statements telling the helmets to run into eachother"
if count equals 0 then ms victory
if count equals 1 then u of m victory

i just cant figure out how to initialize the counter or where to have it at in the code

plz help

Unsoundcode

There are several ways you might do this, here is a pretty simple solution that might fit. It's a branch statement and the address offset (idx)·is toggled as each branch is executed.

idx VAR Bit
main:

'

---

/ Animation code here

PAUSE 1000
BRANCH idx,[noparse][[/noparse]MS_wins,UM_wins]
MS_wins:
DEBUG "MS_wins",CR
idx=1
GOTO main
UM_wins:
DEBUG "UM_wins",CR
idx=0
GOTO main
