The trick is to use two numbers I think and put them together (one of them would be from 0 to 9999, to make things easier). I'm gonna try to write a program to demonstrate how it can be done but like last time I awnsered a question someone else will probably come with a clear awnser before me (I guess that's what happen when I am visual )

EDIT: There we go, but the major issue is getting the formatting right (since it's two separate numbers). Basically when the second number reaches 10000 it makes the first increase by 1 and the second is reset to 0

In addition to that, if you have a game where score increases by 10 points multiples, you can simply append a 0 at the end of the score number. This is what Quigibo did in his Pyoro game.

ooh ok . I am unsure then :S

Note: backup in case I made a typo

0->A->B
Repeat getkey(15)
Text(0,0,B▶Dec
Text((B>9)+(B>99)+(B>999)+(B>9999)+1*4,0,A▶Dec
A+999->A
If A>9999
A-10000->A
B+1->B
End
End

Note I tried adding formatting using boolean logic, like I would do in TI-BASIC, but it didn't work (I mean Text(4+4(B>9)+4(B>99)+4(B>999)+4(B>9999),0,A▶Dec for example)

EDIT: thanks to calc84/dude84se, fixed.

There you go, you have support for a number up to 655359999 (altough it will glitch if you add more than 10000 at once)

not sure what to mean could you explain how to use it?

thanks much.... i think i understand all this

so this wont correctly count higher than 255 squared?

mhmm interesting, that could be another way to do it I guess. As for the issue regarding adding/substracting a value higher than the part of the number to the right to it, one thing that you can do if you don't need a lot of speed (example: in a RPG at the end of a battle when an enemy gives you 156500 gold at once) is to just gradually increase your gold total by chunks of 10000 until it added 150000 then add the remaining 6500 manually. That said I don't think that's so slow, so it could work in more situations, for example when losing HP in a RPG where damages can exceed 65535
