Update it every time your health changes.











winset(src, "healthbar", "value = [round((hp / maxhp) * 100)]")

Do not copy and paste what I provided, set it up according to the way your variables are.











mob/var/tmp/previoushealth = 0 // the previous amount of health
mob/var/health = 10 // health currently
mob/var/maxhealth = 10 // maximum health

mob/Stat()
    if(previoushealth != health) // disables constant winset() updates
        previoushealth = health
        winset(src, "healthbar", "value = [round((health / maxhealth) * 100)]")
    ..()

You can change the command of your input control to the name of your verb, "say", in the interface editor.

There isn't really any typing involved. In the editor, open your input control's options and go to the tab that has Command and it should say there what you should do.

Please make that question a separate topic, and provide some sample DMF files similar to your own one (or even better, your working DMF file).

You make it the same exact way, except you replace hp with experience and maxhp with maxexperience.
