Help getting program to count each position

kirby3422 (30)
So for this program I had to write and display a bug turning 180 degrees and moving one position right horizontally. How would I get the position number of each bug move to display.

So in the case below I've got position 1 which is bug display. then I move bug three times which should be position 4 correct? How would I do this?

You mainly had to move the position statement.
