How do I make counters without using lots and lots of costumes?

You only need costumes 1-9 and 0.
(my remix’s health and ammo bar used that technique, so I’m not gonna explain it much.)
Basically the clones detect the hundreds, tenths and ones in the number and display them

Can you give me examples of the blocks?

The UI sprite in the remix

It's kinda hard for me to understand, I code like a new scratcher

I need tips on how to get better at Scratch

Maybe watch a few vids or so… this is going off topic :P

I think other videos are confusing to learn

Can you teach me how to code like you?

Its a bit hard… i used two years of scratch experience and other’s help to reach this level, and others like @griffpatch and @awesome-llama has more experience on scratch (and other platforms) to code better.

Talk about it here.

How can I make a 2D rocket building game with a functional rocket?

Open a new topic first

I'm drawing a female dragon OC on one of my projects, does her outfit matter? she wears an x shaped croptop, slitted pants, and a belly piercing

Is that okay if I draw her on Scratch with that outfit

I TOLD YOU TO MAKE ANOTHER FOURM TOPIC TO ASK BECAUSE THIS IS GOING SUPER OFF TOPIC AAA

I’m just not those people who knows everything, maybe try searching up in the guidelines or make another topic

To make a counter, you can also use pen. I don't quite understand what any of this has to do with the topic, but here's some code that might help. I believe “clear” has been replaced by “erase all” in version 3.0, you will also need to install the pen extension, of course. This method will only work if you do not have another sprite overlapping with your counter. Name your first nine costumes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and add in 0,.,-, and any other characters you want after that. You can set letter spacing to whatever you want. The variables can be global, local, or even cloud, although I don't recommend cloud for this. The index variable would probably work best as local, and the letter spacing variable as global.

define Print Value(#)(x)(y)
clear
go to x: (x) y: (y)
set [index v] to [0]
repeat (length of (#))
change [index v] by (1)
switch costume to (letter (index) of (#))
stamp
change x by (letter spacing)
end

I'm making a platformer, with 12 characters that can be chosen, how can I make a game that has the player sprite has the same costume as the chosen character? I also want to give them different abilities like flying

This is going off topic please make another post for other questions thanks @earthbright
