for my MTG game, i want there to be like a mana system, where u go and harvest mana,a nd then u have to use that mana to summon units and stuff. i want to keep track of your collected mana on a multiboard, but i dont kno how to make it to where, insted of taking away from ur gold and lumber, i want it to deplete ur mana that's on the board, and say when u run out, some voice wills ay "not enough mana" can anyone help me?

Uh...

Every .1 seconds

Remove X gold and add X to variable, variable being the mana count...

In the multiboard just have the mana cell's text be the variable.


Simple...

but then what if u dont have enoigh mana? if i remove the gold and put that numeric value into the mana's text, then it doesnt substitute the gold for the mana, it just substitutes the amount... doesnt it?
