That's a completely different thing.

Edit: But I'm pretty sure setPrintCount is default in the game anyways.

Oh stuff I saw wrong.

no like on activate self setprintcount <var:br:number> then it would show the number like the actual print would be the varible do you get it so on activte self setprintcount 2 then the bricks print will say 2

why not just do

Code: [Select]

onactivate>self>setprintcount[2]
onactivate>self>vce_modvariable[brick][number][set][2]
?

Okay, this has been said before but i will repeat it and hope you get it.
Given:
Brick A - Printbrick, on which you want to show the variable number.
Brick B - Brick that you want to event so that it shows the variable on A.

Now, let's say we want to print 2 on A when we activate B.
We will have to event brick B like this.

Code: [Select]

onActivate>A>setPrintCount[2]
onActivate>A>vce_modvariable[brick][number][set][2]
This way, A displays 2 and will have a VCE variable (called number) that is also set on 2.

Of course, if you want to use this in a more dynamic way, you need a different approach indeed.
Such as, calculating stuff based on dynamically changing numbers (like score, deaths whatever) and want to display that on a printbrick.

it's default, just like incriment/decriment printcount

either do what i said before, or do mod 10 of the variable and check for the answers, 0-9, and then set the printcount accordingly

[Blocki]

I think he wants to print the variable on the brick.

[Electrk]

I think he wants to display the brick's printcount on like a centerPrint or something.

[deathrider]

what i need is when i click a brick it does vce and does random then whatever that number is from random it will set that print to the print brick
