ok, this first script works, although the layout it returns isn't nice (no +'s and all the same colour), but it works.

I attempted to make it have different colours depening on whether it is positive, negative or 0, but now it sets all the values the same.

If theres any huge mistakes in the second one which makes it mess up, please tell me, and I'm sure all I did was add in an extra /set %attack1.3 etc, which shouldn't mess up the whole script.


Thanks
