Say I want to do the following.

Move ship right until it gets to 98 then do not allow ship to move any further right.

move ship left until it gets to -98 then do not allow ship to move any further left.


Also:

If ship is destroyed by enemy shot then create new ship and subtract 1 from ship total. Update total on screen.

on Key Down Event right
script editor
if( x<98 ) {x=x+5;}

on Key Down Event left
script editor
if( x>-98 ) {x=x-5;}

you may create a timer when the ship is destroyed that re-create the ship after some time (1000 ms or so)
for the ship counter you may create an actor (let's name it ships) with an animation where each frame show a different number of ships, then subtract 1 to animpos of the actor ships everytime the player's ship is destroyed.
hope this make sense.

Can you provide more direction on how to do this? Also, do you know how to keep everything not viewing till the player clicks the start button?

u also could make an actor "total" and put

create total, scripit editor "int totalships = 100"//100 is the number of the ships u want...
destroy ship,script editor "totalships = totalships - 1"
destroy ship, creat ship
