Shooting question

Hey!
I'm working on a project, it is a Mario-style game.
My problem is shooting related, does anyone know to make limited shootings? I mean, I have a counter of bullets and I want the number of bullets there to be the amount of bullets that you can shoot.
I hope you understand my question, and know the answer.
 :)

If you've already got your counter, increment it by 1 every time a bullet is created, and decrement it by 1 when a bullet is killed.

The second bit of your code checks the value of the counter and creates a bullet or not, depending on the value.

For example:

If COUNTER < 3
Create bullet

You can add an OTHERWISE statement if you want something to happen if the bullet limit has been reached.

you can do it by making a boolean attribute too.
Just set it to false every time you  create a bullet and then after a limited time, set it to true again.
