Inserting score and other data into a message or dialog

Does anyone know if there are any special variables that can be accessed in a message or dialog text? For instance, suppose you want to display your score progress thus far. I would think something like "Your score is [%%Score]. Keep it up" might work, but it doesn't.

Hi all the message systems and those used by mods are in the main, code based and the strings within are hard coded ( displays the nominated text  and only that) . SO not  something that can be accessed by the average player.  There could be another mod out there that allows user input in order to display a message I can't recall seeing such a thing though.

As my friend above mentioned, for all essential purposes the info you are looking to be displayed is hard coded and would require a plugin to display ... Writing a plugin to do what you want will not be very difficult unless you have no C# programming experience let alone if you are new to modding (as in making a mod, not adding mods to your game)

Adding onscreen messages is very easy as well as displaying the information you want to see (when using the proper tools) ... perhaps you could write a plugin to do it ;)

As I said, fairly simple if you can figure it out ... Consider this a push to learn something new ;)
