Assistance w/ adding a value per value.

[flyinian]

I have a time system in my game. Minutes, Days, months, years. What are ways that I could add a value(lets say 100) for every day that passes in game?

I know I could go:

if (day == 1 || day == 2 || ect.)
{
    value += 1;
};

That will only add 1 if day is equal to 1. Are there better ways of doing this?

As always, Thank you.

You can use the mod operator to check for that. I imagine you have code somewhere that is supposed to advance the in game time as well as days etc..., in there you can do something like

if(day mod 5 == 0) {
    //action that happens every 5 days
}

Okay, thank you. I'll give this a try.
