Hey guys. I’m a learner, and need some help! I’m making a dress up game, where the user drags the clothes on (which are movie clips), and pay a certain amount of cash, as in, there is a dynamic text box at the top left corner, and because the clothes move with an on (press) command, and they stop moving with the on (release) command, I want the values to decrease when they drag the clothes (or to execute in the on (press) command), and if they don’t like their choice they click a button to increase the value in the dynamic text box back to 50 (as that is how much the guy has). I’ve been trying cash = cash - 5 but that didn’t work, so then I tried health -= 5 but that didn’t work either. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help meklanh PS: Is there a way to set the values back to 50 when the user clicks a button? I tried on (press) { cash = 50; } but that didn’t work. Could you help me with that too?
