Making a variable appear in via edited scripting (SOLVED)

[boudragon]

Ok I have a custom menu script but I cant for the life of me figure out how to make a variable appear when I open the menu up.  I tried putting in the usual /v[xxxx] as if you were doing it in the game dialog editor but it doesnt work.  Here is a little sample of what I mean:

    self.contents.draw_text(4, 32, 120, 32, text, 2)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Sub-Quests : ")
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Main Quests: ")
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Game Tokens: ")

After Sub-Quests, Main Quests and Game Tokens a variable needs to be there but I cant get it.  Please help!

Try this:

    self.contents.draw_text(4, 32, 120, 32, text, 2)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Sub-Quests : " + $game_variables[1].to_s)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Main Quests: " + $game_variables[2].to_s)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,64,140,32,"Game Tokens: " + $game_variables[3].to_s)

I haven't tested it, but it should work.

Ok one last thing... how would I go about making the font size smaller so that it fits in the window properly?  I know if has to do with $fontsize=## right?  But I have no clue where to put it or anything lol.  BTW it did work thank you!

Use self.contents.font.size = #size of the font
