debug = OnscreenText(fg=(1,1,1,1),scale=0.07,mayChange=True)

def UpdateScreen(task):
  debug.setText(Actor.getY())
  return Task.cont

taskMgr.add(UpdateScreen, "UpdateScreen")

Thanks on an urelated question how would i add to strings together. [/img]

4 
string1 = "hello"
string2 = " "
string3 = string1 + string2 + "world"
print string3

That should print “hello world”.

Please, I advise you to read the Python manual or tutorials for this kind of basic information.

Thanks for the help.
