Can someone help me understand why cant the set points code work in this project. The scores are only changing with remove and increase scores block. But not with set points to points + 1. It should work thought
Hi Vedika,
The score-keeping variable is a special variable that works with the “add/remove points” that also automatically displays its value to the top of the screen. Unfortunately if you say to set to points to “points + 1” this affects a completely separate variable called “points” that isn’t really used throughout most of your program. It’s a bit funky because it was important to make it easy for students to make a working scoreboard. I’d recommend sticking with “add/remove points” when using the score variable.
Hope this helps!
Mike
