Could some kind person explain how to put a variable number on the screen. It's for the score in a game which will soon be finished.

Something like this:

+ Code Snippet


// create score variable
score as integer
score = 0

// create a text entity for it
scoretext = createtext("")
settextsize(scoretext,30) // change font size

do

     settextstring( scoretext, "Score : " + str(score))  // change the text entity with the wording we want and the score itself
     settextposition( scoretext, 100,100)

   
    inc score, 5 // increase score by 5 


    sync()
loop

Something like that

Thank you for the reply . Had AppGameKit 3 weeks now and not doing too badly so far. I'll have a play with the code later and see how I get on.
