How do I minus 1 from txtScore value?

Hi,

I have a txtScore that increases in points (numbers) when the player overlap collectibles. What I am trying to do is, subtract 1 point from the score, when the player overlaps an enemy.

How do I do that?

usa a global numeric variable. which you then can add or subtract dpending on event

then the txtfield should be populated with the variable.

don't add points directly to a txtfield

Hi, I used a global variable on the game sheet:

Name: Score

Type: Number

Initial Value: 0

Static: ticked

On the GameLayout, I have created text field:

Name: txtScore

Properties->Text: 0

I am not sure what equations go to which field? If I put the subtract equation to Properties->Text field, it does not seem to work.

Please give me an example and let me know which field I need to change to what?

Thanks in advance 😊

every 1 seconds add to variableScore 1

txtScore set text to "Score: " & variableScore

Thanks for the reply. I'm actually looking to increase score by 1 on player getting a collectible object. If the player hits an enemy object, the score will be deducted by 1.

So I need to know the correct events for this to put on the GameSheet.

Pls advise

Thanks, that worked! =)
