since i i didn't get any help at elysiun...i'm going to ask here ok,go look here and download the file. http://mysite.iptic.com/gargola/robotblast.zip ok...look at the health bar there(it's an overlay scene)...when an enemy bullet collides with the ship,the health bar goes down a bit.i got that part done...now i need that when the ship collects "hearts"(look in the game) the health bar goes back up again.as it's done with a script,you may need to look at the script and the logic bricks to see how it's done and to see the health bar limit(i think it is 106).any help appreciated.Thanx in advance
