Increase number when another number increases

programming flash
1

This is probably really easy!

I have a program where kids can record the laps they run. Depending on how many laps, their level may increase. Level 1 has laps 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8…Level 2 has laps 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 14 etc. I have two vars. lapNumber = 1, and levelNumber = 1.

with a keyboard event, as laps increase lapNumber++, I need the levelNumber to check and possible go up. I was using a switch statement but Its not working. Maybe its with my syntax even though I’m not getting any compile errors. My trace statements are not tracing either. Maybe I should be programming this differently using arrays and I’ll change it if I have to. This is what I got. I also just realized my switch statements will always return a 1. I will have to add a && and another condition.



var lapNumber:Number = 1;
var levelNumber:Number = 1;
var distance:int = 15;

function increaseLevels():void{
	lapNumber++
	if (distance == 15)
	{
		switch (lapNumber)
		{
		case lapNumber > 0: 
		levelNumber = 1;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case (lapNumber > 9): 
		levelNumber = 2;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 19:
		levelNumber = 3;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 30:
		levelNumber = 4;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 43:
		levelNumber = 5;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 54:
		levelNumber = 6;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 67:
		levelNumber = 7;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 80:
		levelNumber = 8;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 94:
		levelNumber = 9;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 108:
		levelNumber = 10;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 123:
		levelNumber = 11;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 138:
		levelNumber = 12;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 154:
		levelNumber = 13;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		
		case lapNumber > 171:
		levelNumber = 14;
		trace (levelNumber);
		break;
		}
