Hi, is there a way to show score as a decimal? I tried  
“Set score to 0.5”, but it just shows 0.

nope, we convert score into an integer. you’ll have to create your own score ui like so:

this example uses the `riknoll/arcade-fancy-text` extension for the text and `jwunderl/arcade-sprite-util` to round the number to two decimal places
