#
# Summary:
# the obj_text can be used to display numeric text in pixelpad.
# Note that it only displays WHOLE NUMBERS. The text will auto round down any decimal number
# Text like "abc" will not work
#
# Example usage:
# score_txt = object_new("obj_text")
# score_txt.nr = 50
# score_txt.char_size = 0.5
#
# You can modify some values to fit your game
#****************************************************

#you can change these values from somewhere else
char_distance = 50
char_size = 1
nr = 0

#defaults
max_digits = 10

#the obj_text should not show any sprite itself
sprite_sheet = sprite_new('spr_font', 4, 3)
empty = animation_new(sprite_sheet, 0, 11, 12)
animation_set(self, empty)

#setting up 7 empty obj_chars
char_os = []
#add one for the negative symbol
for p in range(max_digits+1):
  co = object_new("obj_char")
  co.spr_sheet_name = spr_sheet_name
  char_os.append(co)
