Hello there! I’ve just completed the portion of the Bull’s Eye tutorial where we’ve added 100 additional points for a perfect score and 50 points for a 99… the score on the alert menu is correct. For instance if I get a perfect score it tells me I’ve earned 200 points but that is not actually translating into the overall score, it’s still only adding on 100 points. Same if I hit 99… it says I’ve earned 149 points in the alert menu but only tallies 99 points to my score. Thank you in advance!

hi @hunterfitch,  
It seems that your score is being added twice, if you post the code - you can get some suggestions on where and how to fix it.

cheers,

You’ll have to put :

> score += points

Below :

> …  
> } else {  
> title = “Not Even Close!”  
> }
> 
> score += points // Here

The title/message would get set for your alert, but score itself only gets the bare points added, without the extra points ( before the block that conditionally assigns extra points ) :]

Putting that line after the extra points block should result into a correct score as well, including the extra points.

Grts,

Thank you! That worked and it makes sense!
