What do I do when I want an integer? (resolved)

Post by Ken_Oh »

Now that we're in Fractionoth, which is cool, but I'm getting weird stuff like shops with items worth 15.5 gold. So, how do I round? Also, can I truncate if I don't want to round?

Sure, you can split the string with [set_variables] [split].

I don't know much about it, but if you are [set_variable]ing, wouldn't the round attribute do it?
Truncating isn't supported, you'll have to floor your value :wink:

ok, zookeeper replayed before me ... but is that actually a string?

I'm reading about [split] now in the wiki. I don't understand it, but I'm sure I can play with it and figure it out.

Liz: Does round exist? I don't see it in the wiki. Again, I'll test it out sometime, but the g/f wants the laptop now.
