I have practically no idea what you're asking but here's what I think you're asking. You want another HUD to display how much cash the player has on their screen.

This can be easily done with a self-updating label element. In your interface file, create a new label element. Go into its settings and make it a transparent label.

Next, within your code you'll want an infinite while() loop that constantly calls the winset() proc to "update" the text of the label element.

How about you try reading beyond that point and maybe then you'll understand.

I shouldn't say "constantly calls...". I should say "calls on each iteration". It's more precise in this case :)

I recommend the guide, reference, and the skin reference (located in Dream Maker's Help menu).
