[Solved] Need help with currency counting

[krispydrink]

Hi there, non-programmer here teaching myself GM2 - I've set up a system to count how much currency my player has, however, there's a way to trigger the count twice on each chest object if the player collides then re-collides with the chest object before it's animation is done playing, which is obviously not ideal. I'm a bit stumped as to the best way to fix this. Any tips are very much appreciated!

Delete the 'else' statement, it is resetting the gotmoney variable to false which is allowing the player to double collect.

gotmoney="False" goes in your variable definitions or your create event.

That worked, thanks Rusty!
