Hard to say. I’m sure the Adobe engineers did their best to make the syntax consistent, but there are some differences.

I can see a few errors. Try this:

var myComp = app.project.activeItem; // active Comp
var redTeamScore = myComp.layer(“red score”);
var redScore = redTeamScore.sourceText.value.text;
var currTime = redTeamScore.time;
var redScoreInt = parseInt(redScore);
var newRedScoreInt = (redScoreInt+1)
var newRedScore = “” + newRedScoreInt;

redTeamScore.sourceText.setValueAtTime(currTime,newRedScore);

Two ways:

myString = “” + myVariable;

or,

myString = myVariable.toString();

Then you’d probably want to make it the child of the front layer.

If the layer you want to trace is outlined by a mask, paste that mask into the position property of a Null, spread the resulting keyframes out to the timing you want, select the “Strike” lightning type, and apply this expression to the Direction parameter:

fromComp(thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).position)
