Proper way to increment a game attributes? set game attribute doesn't work

I have a game attribute that's a number and I simply want to increment it by 1, but it doesn't seem like I'm able to set a game attribute to anything.  "set game attribute with name : ___ to ___" doesn't do anything and I'm unable to put a game attribute into the first space of the "increment number by __" block. Suggestions?

The solution LIBERADO provided works, and is what most people use I think.

However, the block you're using should work as well. Instead of putting in the game attribute "num" inside the first empty field, try typing in "num" instead.

That doesn't work because you are trying to tell it to find a variable with the name of the value of "num", not the name "num" itself.

The "set num to __" block wasn't there before. After making a new game attribute, I think you have to close and reopen stencyl before those set blocks become visible.

What build are you using?

@letmethink, I think he's using a build 8670  or up , I also started having a problem with this. Its a bug in Stencyl ( see here   ) but based on this post   there are certain ways to get around the bug.

Donni that is a completely unrelated issue to the one he is having.

I'm using build 8678.
