Yes, just have a variable that you assign a value to, then when something happens like your character dying you can just reduce the value of the variable:

Obviously this is a simplified version...

Mobiius doesn't mean any offence, it does seem to be quite a basic question.

In the DarkBasic Professional forums we have a separate area for 'newcomers' which shields the more experienced users from questions like these that some feel are beneath them

I will make a request for a newcomers area.
