Idk what I'm doing wrong exactly with variables

[Antikore]

Let me explain, I'm trying to do a defend dash system, however, my defend variable stays in 0.
Here are my three command prompts

Code: [Select]

//Player 1 - Create CP
local var defend = 0


Code: [Select]

//Player 1 - Looping CP
if defend > 0
defend - 1
if defend > 16
{
     color = yellow
     effect = diamond out
     remove hurt = true
}
else
remove hurt = false
<area name>[defend] //For testing


Code: [Select]

//Player 1 - Pick Key Press CP
if defend = 0
defend = 32

However, it just does nothing

Really? Anybody?

did you try running two variables?
like 'defend' and 'defend_check'. it might help you out

wdym exactly?

let's say here, wouldn't this be better if you did something like:
if defend_check = 0
defend = 32

maybe this happens simply because Command Prompt doesn't recognize the variables. I had a problem like that before. try running this code with 'game var's in place

okay, lets see

Fixed: I tested changing the name
Looks like defend or defending doesn't work, but defendStatus and defendingS does
So. Its a bug report now?

EDIT: Nvm, defend and defending are built-in variables. Defend is used for adding defend ability to the player, and defending is to check the player's defending status.
