Help needed in creating a Dollar Sign in score that doesn't disappear

[sidcrazy]

Hello, been a long time since I posted or asked any questions but I am stuck and can't find any code or explaination to fix my problem.

 

I want to have a score with a dollar sign at the beginning of the score $. My problem is when I add to the score it turns to a 1.

 

I took this code from another thread. I also use the custom font file so the dollar and space work just fine.

 

 

const fontstyle=STOCK

const fontcharDOLLAR=1

const fontcharSPACE=4

dim sc0=score

dim sc1=score+1

dim sc2=score+2

rem we update the score bytes individually...

sc0=$ba

sc1=$00

sc2=$00

Only when I add to score do I have problems. The dollar sign turns to a 1. I even tried adding to sc2 and still it won't won't work.

Hope this isn't too stupid of a question.

Add to the score like normal, then just before you draw the screen fix the score. Assuming the $ graphic is immediately after the 9 graphic you'd do this:

sc0 = sc0 & $0f ; remove leftmost digit
sc0 = sc0 | $a0 ; make leftmost digit $
