My game uses this method to keep track of the year.



Code:

---

var week = -60; //60 seconds make a week
var_nsave count_time = 1815;  //starting year number

function Year_startup() //calculates year
{
	while(count_time >= 0) 
		{
			wait(week);
			wait(week);
			wait(week);
			wait(week);
			count_time += 1; 
		wait(1);
		}
}  

---

That works as it is supposed to. The year number changes after the set amount of time.

But when I use count_time in a condition like this:

Code:

---

if(count_time > 1816)
{
                wait(-5);
		bronze_pan.visible = on;
		set_mouse(2);
}  

---

nothing happens. What am I missing?
