Quick Lives Problem

ok I'm working on making lives for a game. The lives work, BUT the images don't. The room starts and the sprite remains and image 0 when it should start at 3. Then when you die it still doesn't change, and the lives do go down. Can anyone help? Here's what I have so far

Sprites:
{spr_lives}
image 0: a zero
image 1: a one
image 2: a two
image 3: a three

The Lives Controller Object:
{obj_lives}
<Create Event>

Code: [Select]

image_index=spr_lives
lives=3
image_speed=0<Step Event>

Code: [Select]

if lives=0{
show_message("GAME OVER!")
game_restart()}<Draw Event>

Code: [Select]

draw_sprite(spr_lives,-1,view_xview+0,view_yview+72)
code for when the character dies:
{obj_health}
<Step Event>

Code: [Select]

if obj_health.image_index=0{
lives-=1
show_message("You DEAD!")
obj_health.image_index=34
room_restart()}
If anything else needs to be explained let me know.

PS: For my healthbar object I'm using images as health with 0 as none and 34 as the max.

Hmm, I don't know if 7 works the same as GM 6.1 but I had a look and I think I worked it out:

all this is a code edit for the Lives object

<Create>
Remove the first line, it isn't needed.

<Draw>
Change it so it looks like below:

Code: [Select]

draw_sprite(spr_lives,lives,view_xview+0,view_yview+72)If you can't see it, I changed the -1 for subimg to lives, so the subimg (image 0,1,2,etc) is equal to the amount of lives

hope it helps you!
