I (a beginner) make a simple chest event to give player 5 potions, add the event to a chest prefab, it runs but it's not right, when the player press enter at the chest, he gets 5 potions, but when I press Enter at the chest again, the chest opens again he gets 5 potions more, and more like that, it's supposed to display "The chest is empty." but it's not.

Here's my event:









What I don't understand here is I tried to set the float "counter" variable to 5 at the end but seems like it doesn't work, it reset when the event called maybe?

I find that using "Deactive after event" will make the chest disappear and prevent the bug from happening but it's not the correct way to do. Can you tell me where did I go wrong?

When you're using Object game variables, you'll need to add an Object Variables component to the game object. Otherwise there's no way to identify the game variables connected to the game object :)
