Displaying Score in Game Over Menu

I have my score updating in my main.gui during run time. When the game_over.gui is enabled and the main.gui is disabled, how do I get a hold on the score node from the main.gui and display the score node in the game_over.gui. I’ve been working on this for about 2 to 3 weeks now and still have found no solution to my problem. Maybe I’m looking at the solution in the wrong way.

Thank you for the help in advance!

You can send a message with score from main.gui to game_over.gui. Or you can store the score value in a shader Lua module that both gui_script files can access.

You can send the score over to the other GUI in a message. See here for details.

You could also store the score information in a Lua module shared by the two GUIs, though I’m not sure that’s the best approach.

Thank you for the fast response. I will give it a try by sending a message.
