I'm probably the only one who has ever asked how to write text
but, i'm using the 'text' command

how would i make the "text$" ro string part of it, be like a number that i can just do like text$ = text$ + text$ but i dont think that'd work with strings. how would i make it so i can do that?
(i use DBC)

You did what? For who?! For how many jellybeans?!?

text 100,100,text$

text 190,100,"Ahhhhh "+text$

You cant do it if you try

set cursor x,y
print "SCORE: " ; dwoScore


x,y being screen coordinate
dwoScore being your score variable (mine would be as DWORD)

cool, just remember the screen x/y for text is based on the text size. It has no relation to other objects like sprites or 3d objects.
