Hi,

I'm implementing a simple scoring feature in the game, but I'm still a bit foggy on how to use your own functions.  I've created a pretty simple function for adding to a score text, but I'm not sure WHERE to put it and HOW to use it.  I tried sticking it in the game.script file and calling it from a scene object script, but it didn't work.  I guess I'm not sure if I have to add an "#include" everywhere I want to use it (a bit tedious) or somehow attach it to a game object...it would be ideal if I could somehow stick the function onto the Game object and just call Game.AddScore() when I need it.  Is this possible?

Yup, you can add new custom methods to any in-game object. All you need to do is add a "method" block to the script attached to that object.

In this case, add something like this to game.script:

Code: [Select]

method AddScore(NumPoints)
{
  // some code here
}
