random_placement num_items WFL

[vghetto]

Hi,

random_placement's num_items is deprecated and I get a warning saying use WFL instead.

I included the parentheses and it still giving me the deprecation warning.

Code: Select all

num_items="(size * ({N} / 100))"

num_items="$(size * ({N} / 100))" does not work.

Anyone know how I'm supposed to use WFL here?

I tried looking up examples in the campaigns and macros folders.
In terrain-utils.cfg it is the same as I have here. In HttT scenario 12 it is still using the old form (might need updating).

Thanks

Edit: I tried throwing in ceil. num_items="ceil(size * ({N} / 100))" gave an error message. num_items="$(ceil(size * ({N} / 100)))" didn't work.

It looks like there's a bug with the way the engine detects that you're using the deprecated form of num_items. Your first version is correct. We'll fix the bug, but in the meantime you can silence the deprecation warning by putting a space between the quote and parentheses, like so:

Code: Select all

num_items=" (size * ({N} / 100)) "

Unfortunately this is now broken in 1.15.9
