How to change the look of a variable

dgprogramer

Hi, so in my game, I have a score variable, and to be honest, the orange background of the variable looks terrible with my game. Does anybody know how I can upload my own letters and numbers as the score variable? Thanks. For more reference, look at the game “Heights Hopper” in my profile! Thanks!

Without getting your own extensions (The ST has banned saying them, so I can't say which), there is no way to do this. Even with them, it will only appear for you.
If you like the color of another variable (such as a sound variable, looks, motion…) better, you can make a new sprite and change their information to the proper value and show that instead, although you won't be able to show/hide it.

Not sure why @codeman1044 says this is impossible unless I'm misunderstanding. Do you just want something like https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/43934978/ ?

I'm blind, and therefore cannot read.
I missed the request for custom letters and numbers. If I had noticed that, I would have given a more accurate response.

Look inside my project and see how I did it then. You can do this with clones or stamping and it's just a case of choosing and showing costumes for the different digits.

Gotcha, will do.

You simply make Sprite that has a high amount of costumes for each number in the game. Then, have it go to where you need to put the score. It may take up to 30 minutes, but it may be worth it.
