GUI Text Unity 5

Hey guys I am following this tutorial: http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/space-shooter/counting-points and was wondering how I should accomplish what he is doing (using GUI text) in Unity 5? What are my best options?

 

UI Text,
http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/modules/beginner/ui/ui-text

Have to add

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine.UI;

at the top with other using's..

and then instead of,

Code (CSharp):

1. public GUIText scoreText;

its,

Code (CSharp):

1. public Text scoreText;

 

If you are using U5 though, I'd recommend learning and switching to the new UI system.
GUIText is part of the legacy GUI system.

 

Tanks Simon.

 

Tank you later

 

Thanks mgear!
