    You can dynamically reference an attribute value that reflects your high score and follow it up with text by doing something like :


    In the message field : Open the expression editor, type in your text and use alt+space to separate your text. Then, you'll concatenate your text string from your numerical value. So it should look something like this :

    Example: "Hey I just scored "..game.HighScore.." in this awesome game!"

    GameSalad provides you with stubs when using the preview player in the creator itself. Although it doesn't post to twitter, it still gives you an idea of what you're going to get when posting with Tweetsheet.

    Hope this helps!

    You're missing the ".."s - which are equally as important as the quotations.

    Broken into steps:

    "my text " - You want a space after the word "text" so you can have a space between the word and the numerical value.

    ..game.GameScore.. - You need these dots here so that you can concatenate the two strings apart from the value in the middle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concatenation

    " my text2." - You'll put a space before the "my" so you can again, have space between the word and numerical value.

    example: "my text "..game.gamescore.." my text2."

    Make sense?

    I think it automatically includes a link to your app

    No it does not. I did it this way.. coppied app url from itunes, then find some ulr shortener in google and then coppied url in tweet text... but REMEMBER after text ends and before "space" you must put comma.. because when exporting url is sticking with last word of text.. like this: "My text, http:applink.com"

    According to the release notes it does:

    Another great benefit to Tweet Sheet is it’s automated URL generation. Whenever a player tweets from a game, Tweet Sheet will find that app on the App Store and automatically include a shortened URL to direct people to purchase or download that game.
