Hi,
Sorry to disturb you with my endless variable problems, but is there a way to put variables in a row in a textNumber?
I've tried things like
textNumber = firstvariable & secondvariable & thirdvariable

What exactly you want to show?

I want to display variables like this:
An text actor's value:
2075682
when
Variable1: 20
Variable2: 75
Variable3: 682
So the variable 1-3 values are put one after one.
(Like in VB script when you add a text between two variables
lbl_info.text = myvariable & " times in" & 2ndvariable & " days")

Use the sprintf function. If the Variable1, Variable2 and Variable3 are integers, use:
- Code: Select all
sprintf(text, "%d%d%d", Variable1, Variable2, Variable3);
strings

nope,
I know alot of C,
but I have problems programming outside of GE because I do not have the right softwhere.
