pygame Error in keeping score

Question

I'm making a platform game for class and I used this video as my guide. However, I'm having trouble keeping score. Here is my code. The problem is that once I hit a coin, instead of adding only 1 point, it increments continuously. Please help!

Answer 1

In this section where you check to add to the score:

if self.isRight == True:
    self.score += 1

You forgot to set self.isRight back to False. Change your code to this:

if self.isRight == True:
    self.score +=1
    self.isRight = False
