Hi all, I was wondering if there is a way to have move drawn text?  I have a score appear next to an object being hit however it just kinda stays there, is there a way to make the score drift up then fade out?  thanks

You could create a highscore number by script and make it follow an empty actor (no sprites), then you animate that actor.

If you want to have an effect like you have in jazz jack rabbit, you need to create a seperate actor for each number and attach a prefabbed behavior to it. But in not sure how to do that last

Hi, thanks for the reply, i got it working.  I made the score follow an invisible actor as you suggested.
