score2...score9 BCD vars

[fultonbot]

Is there a trick to defining and/or setting score2 ?   
I DIMmed it to "a" and set it like I set score0, but it keep showing "0" when I use plotvalue:


 

dim score2 = a 

 rem b - 2nd byte of score 2

 rem c - 3rd byte of score 2

...
score2 = 60

...
plotvalue font 0 score2 1 152 6

It might be showing the correct value based on what you're telling it to display.  The 6 is in the higher nibble of C - ie the second digit that you're not asking to be displayed - you're just asking for it to display the 0 of 60, if I remember plotvalue correctly.  Try plotvalue font 0 score2 2 152 6.  Might want to change the 152 to 144.

I had to display all 6 characters of score2 to make it work.

That would be because the lowest part of the score would be stored in score2+2 which would be c in your case. Try displaying variable c with two digits.

Hey!!  That's a great idea!
