My if statement in spritekit (swift isn't working). I'm trying to increase the number of obstacles as the...
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I'm creating a game in Spritekit where a player has to collect coins. While collecting them, they have to avoid bombs. Basically, I want to increase the number of bombs that appear as the score gets higher... so I used an if statement - but it isn't working. The number of bombs that appear tends to stay the same:
if self.score >= 0 && self.score < 20 {
bombTimer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 4, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.createBomb()
})
} else if self.score >= 20 && self.score < 35 {
bombTimer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 3, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.createBomb()
})
} else if self.score >= 35 && self.score < 50 {
bombTimer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 2, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.createBomb()
})
} else if self.score >= 50 && self.score < 150 {
bombTimer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 1, repeats: true, block: { (timer) in
self.createBomb()
})
}

What are you doing with the bombTimer? Have you checked to see that createBomb works properly? Or that as the score increases, the code falls into different if clauses?

If you are writing code inside of a SKScene class I like to use SKActions rather than NSTimers since the actions will pause when the scene is paused.
Paste this function inside your scene class somewhere.
Using a switch statement is nicer to use when working with a buttload of conditions
func getBombInterval() -> Double? {
switch true {
case score >= 0 && score < 20: return 4
case score < 35: return 3
case score < 50: return 2
case score < 150: return 1
default: return nil
}
}
Then replace the code you posted above with this:
guard let interval = getBombInterval() else { print("Score is less than 0") ; return }
let waitAction = SKAction.wait(forDuration: interval)
run(waitAction, completion: { self.createBomb() } )
