Hi, how do I make a points counter for a clicker game?
30 digits will be a problem since Scratch has a math problem with more than 16 digits.
You could look at my counting “invention” that starts with a high number and stops working after just a couple of clicks because of Scratch math.

Hi, how do I make a points counter for a clicker game?
You have to make a clone identification system
Now make the clones switch to the numbers.
when green flag clicked
repeat (30)
turn cw (.01) degrees
move (10) steps
create clone of [myself]
end
Now make the clones switch to the numbers.
when I start as a clone
forever
switch costume to (letter (((direction) - (90)) * (100)) of (score))
end

Oh.Are you still looking for help or do you have everything you need?

I liked my number display because it includes commas which make the number easier to read. Also, without special math routines you won’t get 30 digits. At most you’ll get 16 digits and some trailing placeholders.

Wait what? Scratch has issues solving math with over 20 digits? But WHY? Is this a bug, or something? Is it Scratch 3.0 specific, or has it been a bug since 1.0?

Hi, how do I make a points counter for a clicker game?
The math bug is number 8 in my studio of Scratch programming pitfalls. You’ve asked some good questions but we tend to follow the practice of starting a new topic in the Questions about Scratch forum. TheProdigyCoder103 appears to be done with this thread and might not want to be bothered with any more replies.
