If in the stats screen, you can use the

```
*stat_chart
    percent (variable)

```

to display a bar.

For ending the game when a variable reaches zero, you can use `*gosub` commands to check if it’s zero or not, and use it to go to a scene where the game ends.

You can also use `*if` statements to check if the variable has reached zero, but the code will have to be copy-pasted to every instance where the variable has decreased.

</div>

```
*stat_chart
   percent health HP

```

And when you want the game ends.

```
*if health <= 0
   game over
   tadaaa

```
