The only options are to set to, add or subtract. however the recent game 'Gravitroid' appears to show damage as a number yet it follows the ships around!? how the heck did the maker do this? .

Hernan Registered 04/03/2003 Points 707	12th October, 2004 at 11:36:42 - Never mind, just played the game. Don't think he used active objects. Must've used strings or something. Edited by the Author. This space is for rent

Tigerworks Klik Legend Registered 15/01/2002 Points 3882	12th October, 2004 at 15:55:53 - The point I was trying to make was maybe Gravitroid was made in MMF. Then I checked, and it wasn't, so sorry for the lack of research in the response, but I have other things to do, like make Terminal Orbit. Anyways, in Gravitroid it looks like a string object. Str$() and so on. - Tigerworks

AndyUK Mascot Maniac Registered 01/08/2002 Points 14586	12th October, 2004 at 18:23:22 - But im lazy too. string object eh? i did actually send the creator a dcmail asking how, but since i may never get a reply i decided to ask the masses. .

I can't really recommend it because edit boxes are a little unstable, but it works. Edited by the Author. Gridquest V2.00 is out!! http://www.create-games.com/download.asp?id=7456
