High Score Not Working...

[pbjorge12]

Why doesn't the highscore function work? It always accepts your name even if it is lower....And How do I make it so that high[4] and high [5] together equals the high score? I tried high[4,5] along with other things..,Thanks!

try cutting out to exactly where your problem is. if by the second part of your question you mean you want to add the two numbers, you do it like this:

highScore=score[4]+score[5];

[pbjorge12]

Not add...But like...append almost...

So if high[4] was 1 and high[5] was 2

The total highscore would be 12

[cgod]

Thats what major_smalls code does 'highScore=score[4]+score[5];' basically means assign highscore the value of score[4]+score[5].

Oh...Sorry...I thought it added the two together like 1+2 =3
