could you help me?
I've searched through all the documentation but can't find anything, there's nothing (I can find) in QDK about numeric values.
I need this for the timer and every time I check the de-bug window it says that I haven't defined the numeric variable.
thanx

You set a numeric variable using the setvar ASL command, or the appropriate action in QDK, with a parameter such as:

myvariable; 15

Then to display it you use it in a parameter surrounded by % signs, eg.

msg <You have %money% dollars in your wallet.>

or the "print a message action" with the parameter

You have %money% dollars in your wallet.
