This is the current value of the modification (not the score which is housed in the score gadget). Note this can be negative, so if you “Add” a negative number to the score, you can create a “subtract” option. - Current Score
This output provides the current score from the Score gadget when used in combination with the “Get” operation type. - Power
This is where you can turn the gadget on/off.
