I've been pondering this for ages now, I have put the set numeric all over the place..... at the start up of the game, misc ASL in the global controls and on the main bar, and yet STILL the numeric doesn't come up in the Quest 3.0 Beta2 numeric list..... meaning whenever I try to call it for use with the timer (see my earlier post) in anything, it doesn't see it and Quest crashes!!
so where the h*ll does it go?
thanx

What do you mean "call it for use in the timer"? The "set numeric" is irrelevant - is the "define variable" block present (within the "define game" block), and does it include a "display" line?
