How to change a sprite's image when a score changes
-3
I have been creating an Xcode game in Swift using Sprite Kit. However, when I try to change the character's image when the high score goes above 40, it doesn't work.
This is the code:
if highScore >= 40{
player = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "start")
}
Not too sure where I am going wrong but any advice would be much appreciated.
Here is the link to the source code:

FYI - you are not creating an "Xcode game". You are creating either an iOS game or a macOS game.

You should only update the player texture:
if highScore >= 40 {
player.texture = SKTexture(imageNamed: "start")
}
Here you are not creating a new sprite, you are just updating its texture.

thank you @YannickLoriot but that still doesn't work for some reason, the game runs but it still won't change the character. I'll upload the source code incase I am going wrong somewhere earlier

@skullamunger in your case thehighScorevariable is always equals to 0 inside this method that's why the sprite does not update its texture. It seems your highest score is stored in theUserDefaults().integer(forKey: "highscore").

Jan 20 at 17:30
ok, how do I fix that?

Jan 20 at 20:10
As I've said, instead ofif highScore >= 40 {useif UserDefaults().integer(forKey: "highscore") >= 40 {. But you should refactor your code to be more efficient.
