It's impossible, that's why.

Make a new hud and delete the old one?

hmm tried?

It's not a matter of sprite. It exists sprites 0 to 9. The Health message use a byte as health value. You can't go above 1 << 8, so 255 is the max. ( If I'm right )

That sounds highly probable to me, arkshine

And One, try reading what you've written before hitting that "Post" button.

Then delete it, then go outside.

And then just make sure not to post it once you get back inside.

Yes, 255 is the max value an 8-bit byte can hold. 1 << 7 is the max left-shift as 1 << 8 will put you in the 9th (non-existent) bit.

255 = 1111 1111
