Hello @Rick_Davidson, I just want to take a moment and thank you for all the great content in this course so far. I love the challenges (even if I fail them, I at least attempted and usually get some of it right) as they allow me to access my growth. You are doing such a better job teaching me programming than any college programming course I have taken. So thank you for all the help so far. Can’t wait to see what else this course brings!!

Just learnt that one can call a variable from another script like we do classes, as long as it is a public variable. It works and I can define what each block is worth, the only issue that is arising is that the script seems to be using the prefabs worth only. So even though i have 5 blocks all with different points it only uses the prefabs.

EDIT: Scratch that it seems to use the value of the last block added to the scene for all the blocks, strange…

problem solved using a different approach.

Displaying my score with a coroutine so that the numbers go up X numbers at a time like if you were playing pinball.

Example: Block is worth 5 points the score will go 1,2,3,4,5 and then stop.

I think it looks pretty cool.
