you would need to post more of the code to see what’s going on with it

Sometimes it increases the value by one and fires the level 2 event, but that is rare, once every 10 plays. BUT it only increases the value by +1 so level 2, then get’s stuck again?

It’s still really hard to follow what’s going on with this code, I don’t see how much of it connects with each other.

Where would AmpPlayerLevel get incremented in this?

First code block

var AmpPlayerLevel<private> : int = 1 <- INCREMENT HERE

    var XPPlayers : [player]experience_manager = map{}

    OnBegin<override>()<suspends>:void=
        Sleep(1.0)
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 1):
                PowerUp1()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 2):
                PowerUp2()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 3):
                PowerUp3()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 4):
                PowerUp4()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 5):
                PowerUp5()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 6):
                PowerUp6()

But that’s just where the variable is stored, where does the variable get changed?

Expanded view.

    var AmpPlayerLevel<private> : int = 1

    var XPPlayers : [player]experience_manager = map{}

    OnBegin<override>()<suspends>:void=
        Sleep(1.0)
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 1):
                PowerUp1()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 2):
                PowerUp2()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 3):
                PowerUp3()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 4):
                PowerUp4()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 5):
                PowerUp5()
            if(AmpPlayerLevel = 6):
                PowerUp6()
            loop:
                Sleep(1.0)
                    Print("Level={AmpPlayerLevel}")

    LevelReciever():void=
            set AmpPlayerLevel = AmpPlayerLevel + 1 <- HERE
            Print("Level + 1")

Try set AmpPlayerLevel += 1. It’s the same goal, but written the standard cleaner way. Technically your method should work but I have never tried.

Replicate your issue in an isolated example. In doing that you will probably figure out what you’ve messed up, and if you don’t, you’ll have something you can put in a bug report instead.

I have change around the code a little bit, now instead calling the function to apply the damage modifier from the experience_manager. I get it to print all of the different Damage Amp Levels, but I can’t for the life of me get it to pick up the effect.
But it picks up on the OnBegin call. :thinking:

    LevelUp() : void =
        set CurrentXp = 0.0
        set PlayerLevel = PlayerLevel + 1
        Init(100.0 * PlayerLevel * 1.1)
        LevelTransfer()
    

    LevelTransfer() : void =
        if(PlayerLevel = 2):
            DamageAmpDevice.PowerUp2()
        if(PlayerLevel = 3):
            DamageAmpDevice.PowerUp3()
        if(PlayerLevel = 4):
            DamageAmpDevice.PowerUp4()  

 OnBegin<override>()<suspends>:void=
        DamageAmpDev1.Pickup()

    PowerUp2(): void =
        DamageAmpDev2.Pickup()
        Print("Damage Amp 2 Picked up!")
    
    PowerUp3(): void =
        DamageAmpDev3.Pickup()
        Print("Damage Amp 3 Picked up!")

    PowerUp4(): void =
        DamageAmpDev4.Pickup()
        Print("Damage Amp 4 Picked up!")

I also use this at the top of the experience_manager

experience_manager := class(): 
    Player:player
