Question about checking the current score . . .

[disjaukifa]

Hey Guys,

 

I know you can check score like this

 

if sc1 = $00 && sc2 = $00 && sc3  = $00 then ...

 

But can I check the score using a decimal number instead of a hexadecimal number?

 

Thanks

Actually I did, but what I didn't see was if I could take a variable lets say a which has a value of 35

 

a = 35

 

and then do this

 

if sc1 = $00 && sc2 = $00 && sc3  > $00 + a  then ...

 

*UPDATE* That seems to be working. I tried that earlier tonight and I my score was still rolling backwards, I must have forgotten the "$" on the 00 when I tried it earlier.

 

Hey Random do you know an easy way tell check to see if you score as rolled to a million and keep track of it?

I bet you could adapt this:
