i have a question, how do you make a textnumber goal?
EX. i want to have a cirtain amout of deaths until the game ends like on mario or somthin you only have 3 lives or w/e.

ty.

pseudocode follows

actor textGoal
on create actor
textNumber = 3

actor character
on destroy character
textGoal.textNumber = textGoal.textNumber -1;
{
if ( textGoal.textNumber == 0)
/* do game over stuff here */
}

i wanna get it so i can click on a guy and it will kill one of his lives

Have you looked at GE's Help--> Game Stuff?
There are several demo tutorials that deal with making scores.

yes i have and there is nothing there that can help me
i need to know how to make it so it will cout down 3 lives and end the game at 0 but i dont kno how . i know how to make it count down but not to end the game at a cirtain point.

You can try this:

yourCounter = yourCounter - 1;
if(yourCounter <= 0)
{
ExitGame();
}
