Change value of a field in a different composition.
I don’t know if this is possible.
Basically I want to do a counter that will store a value so I can later retrieve it in a different frame with an expression
In comp A we have a field called A
In comp B we have a field B that has some expressions in it. We have a variable in it called count.
In the if statement is true, 1 is added to the value of A in Comp A.
When the if statement is true again, it retrieves the value of A in Comp A and adds 1 to it again. The value of A changes, only when the if is true. This will create a counter.George

Expression have no memory, so there are no persistent variables. There may be workarounds though, depending on what you’re trying to do.

I would like to be able to make a loop counter .
I’m making a game clock which will run for 45 minutes. I figured to have the scored change automatically when the clock reaches the time that a goal is scored.
Originally the goals scored of team A is 0.
At 10:05, they score a goal.
This time is at the frame of (10*60 + 5) = 605 seconds and if we have 30 frames per second, then at frame 18150, the score should change from 0 to 1.At frame 31150 they score a second goal, then the 1 should change to 2. Every time a frame is reached that a new goal is scored, the value displayed should change by 1.
Is their a work around.
We know how many goals will be scored in the half, and the frame that they are scored upon.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This is a simple example where you set up an array with the goal scoring times (in seconds):
goalTimes = [100,200,300,400]; // in seconds
score = 0;
for (i = 0; i < goalTimes.length; i++){
if (time > goalTimes[i])
score++
else
break;
}
score
