Newcomers DBPro Corner / I'm trying to implement a score into the game but it won't increase (sorry if the code is a little messed up I had to get this from PC to Mac which doesn't have a usb drive)

You had the open tag for DBPRO but not the closing tag so as it displayed on the forum properly
I did a mod edit and fixed that

I think he is talking about when you post code here, you have to click the CODE button (select Misc code) then paste your code and then click the CODE button again and select Misc Code again in order to correctly display the code in a snippet.

Anyway, as to the code, you did not have any variable for keeping the score in the code. Establish a variable and increment it when the player collides with an object. I added this in the code I am posting here (I just picked random amounts). Also, with your treadmill animated sprite covering the screen, you will never see any text printed unless you put in the command, DRAW SPRITES FIRST early in the code. This does all the sprite drawing before the text commands, so you can actually see the text on the screen. Again, I included this in the code. Took a screen grab of it.




So many games to code.....so little time.
