Creating a simple score keeping mechanic? [SOLVED]

[SplashyDashyBomBashi]

So, I'm incredibly new at this and want to create a scenario for a dating sim where depending on your answers, your overall 'score' with a character will go up or down. So, for example, you say something they like, you get maybe +5 to their overall score. I want to try to figure this out and I know it's possible (and probably super easy and I'm asking a dumb question) but I'm afraid of screwing up my program so far. I've done it before and I really don't want it to happen again. Can anyone help me?

You can create a variable called SCORE and change its value depending on the choice. Should be something like this:

Code: Select all

    h " It's time for the Mega-Lottery Quiz!"
    
    $ score = 0    #This is the variable that stores your score

    menu: 
        "Question 1: What color is the sky?"

        "BLUE":
            $ score += 5

         "INDIGO":
            $ score += 3

         "Azule":
            $ score += 1

         "RED"
            $ score -= 100

BTW, you use the (-=) if you want to deduct, and (+=) if you're going to add.

Thanks - I'll try this out! I'm not very good at this, so we'll see how I do!
