If Spacekey() = 1 Then Inc MyValue,5

Is this what you mean? if so then try using it with the ScanCode as you get better Keyboard Access

IE: If ScanCode() = 15 Then Inc MyValue,5

You can get ScanCode Values using the following
Do : CLS : Text 10,10,Str$(ScanCode()) : Sync : Loop

Why not just use this print Str$(Score/10)
This should give you a whole number where 10=1 20=2, ect, either that or what WindowsKiller said above

There is a very stupid way to do that. And I'm sure there is a VERY much better way to do it. But making 10 pictures, each getting more filled, like the exaple below.

---------- picture 1
0---------
00--------
000-------
0000------
00000-----
000000----
0000000---
00000000--
000000000-
0000000000 all the way to picture 10

and when yo get to a certain point in a variable (say 10), you change the picture to picture 2. Which has 10% filled.

As I said, this is a very, very, VERY stupid way to make this. And I'm sure there is a better way to do this.

And your last point... Is there absolutely NO way to describe what you mean? An accurate explanation of your problem(s) might make people understand your meaning. 'cause I really don't, I'm just guessing.

There is a program in the 20 lines challenge that does JUST this!!! I forgot what it's called... Maybe "Click! The simplest RPG ever" or something like that. I think the author has a bar image saved as a sprite and then stretches it to do something similar to what nakidno described above.

When the going get stuf,
the stuf get's sinister

No, that's not what he mean. He means like a loading bar in a game. After time it gets filled up.

... It seems like it got over complicated. Just a bar that stretches to show progress?


This is my WIP, not even ready for a WIP thread yet though.http://smallgroupproductions.com/
