To whomever can help me,

At the end of my game, I wanted to present a line of text that says "You had a final score of 200 out of 200 and I thank you for playing."

The code I tried is as follows:

You had a final score of $ubound(Score)$  and I thank you for playing.

It almost works but instead of producing what the status variable says, it just inserts a 0.

Any thoughts?

Why are you using the ubound function - surely you just want to display the contents of the variable, e.g. %score% or #score# ...?

I guess I was thinking too far into it and made it more difficult. I know I've seen ubound used before.

I'll have to wait until I get home but I was thinking that %score% #score# would produce just the number of the variable as opposed to the whole sentence. I was onto something like that after I posted my question but I will work more on it when I get off work!


...and don't call me Shirley!

Alright Mary - let's take a lookey eh?

$ubound()$ is used on arrays. It is to see how BIG the array is.

What you want is more like:
%score% / %possible%.

Which is fine is a msg <> tag.

or just...

You had a final score of %score% out of %topscore% and I thank you for playing.

%score% being your score, and %topscore% being the max you could achieve.

What I ended up doing that worked for me is first setting the Score numeric variable to %score1% by coding it somewhat like:

set %score% to %score1%

I don't know exactly what the code looks like. I'm at work right now.

and the last code looks like:

You have a final score of %score1% out of 260

Since the total score never changes, there's no reason to put another variable.
