2 question 1 math 1 trigger could use help
|
can c mud run equations and give resolve?? such as:
5 + 9 ( 39 / 3) - 4 =
does it recognize algebra ?
if so how would I do this?
also Iam trying to trigger this for an auto target but I have a problem with these: example [XXXX]?
Iam trying to only capture the XXXX
ATTACK!! [XXXX]?
#trig ATTACK!! [%1]?
#var target %1
when I try doing this its not working cause the brackets...
jsut dunt know what to do....
thanks

Your first question is a yes and no answer. If you're asking if it can solve for x, then that is something CMUD cannot do without extensive coding. I'd probably go more into that, but I'm on my phone right now.
Second, two problems. First, you shouldn't be using %1 in a trigger pattern. Second, [] are special characters and need to be quoted. if you aren't sure what the xxxxx is going to be, then you can do this:
#TRIGGER {ATTACK!! ~[(*)~]} {whatever %1}
If it's always one word, then change the * to %w.
Hope this helps.

also, i think cmud evaluates the numbers from left to right so instead of 5 + 9 ( 39 / 3) - 4 =
you could try 39/3*9+5-4= that might help, depends on what your doing i guess |

Cmud will correctly evaluate your math problem using the standard order of operations. However you need to explicitly declare multiplication with * and not the short form of x(y). However as Charneus said it will not solve for an unknown variable on both sides without extensive code. Also Cmud math defaults to integer math so to get floating point returns at least one of the numbers hast to have a decimal point in it (.0 works)
5+9(39/3)-4=118 would need to read
5+9*(39/3)-4=118
floating point example
5+9*(40/3)-4=118 (40/3 will return 13 in integer math)
5+9*(40.0/3)-4=121 (40/3 will return 13.33333 in floating point) |
