Well normaly if you want the player to press a button and get a reaction from the button, you use the input command like so:


and so on and so forth. Did that help?

You dropped the mic DJ, now I'll do the fillin'
I'm helpin' out the Blast you know by giving him this message


Convert h1 into a string. You can do this real easy by writing

h1=300
h1string = STR$(h1)

Then use '+' rather than ; or , like in other programming langs.

Replace this line with your one.
text 300,20,"HP: "+str$(h1)+"/300"

Yes there will be coding problems.
