Five special powers, but how can I program it?

Hi guys,

I have a question about programmation that is too complicated to manage for my knowledge and maybe some of you can help me :-)

The situation:

The character of my game has 5 special powers that he can use.

But... at the beginning he can use only 1 of the 5 powers at the time.

Then during the game... he will be allowed to use 2 powers simultaneously, then 3 powers simultaneously, then 4 powers simultaneously and at the end 5 powers simultaneously.

For the moment I only created a value called:

ALLOWED_SIMULTANEOUSLY_POWERS
(initial value: 1)

and 5 variables, one each power, called:

POWER_A
POWER_B
POWER_C
POWER_D
POWER_E
(initial values: FALSE. Then when I select the different powers, the value of the selected power turns to TRUE)

How can i program it? (if it's possible without LUA)

Thank you in advance for your help!!!

Yes , very easily by changing the conditions set for each power.

You could make each power as a command in your interface. Setting the command to a, b, c, d, e is only allowed when the condition is true

Thanks!
