I went with the global variable. Took me some time to figure out where to declare a global variable at. But the box now add's to the score correctly. Thanks.

So I take it the array is better used for multiple values. For example player 1 to 4's score and other constant numbers?

Anywho this puts my first game nearly done. It's sooo bad. But I learned alot of useful stuff. Thanks.

added a array to the container property of txt box, still wont display score of game.

ok so now I have a array called score set up. Everytime player has collision with finish. finish is a block at the end of the map. score gets +1.

Also have a txt box set up called score. add 1 to score is set up under the same collision command as above. I can see the txt box at the end of the level. But a score is never added to it.

I'm building a simple one level platform jumper for my first game. I have turrets firing at the player and a wall at the end of the map. The player scores one point every time the jump into the wall. One hit from a turret kills the player.

Anyways I have a array set up to generate 1 point every time player collides with the wall. I don't know how to cause the array's value to be put into the text box.
