random quest script help
 
I am trying to figure out how to evaluate the next percent and the quests needed to reach that next percent. So far I have the following:

Code:
#CLASS {RQE}
#VAR nquests {}
#VAR perc {%concat( %eval( %1*100/%2), ".", %mod( %1*1000000/%2, 10000), "%")}
#VAR rqerate {@perc( @rqesolved, @rqe)}
#VAR rqesolved {1900}
#VAR rqe {2235}
#TRIGGER {You finished (%d) random quests, failed (%d) and abandoned (%d) of them.} {
  rqesolved = %1
  rqe = %eval( %1+%2+%3)
  #SAY Your RQE Completion Rate is @rqerate~. You need @nquests quests to reach @nextperc~.
 }
#CLASS 0


I've tried using a %eval and I've tried using #while, however I'm unable to get either one to work. All help for this is much appreciated.

#MATH perc (%1*100.0/%2)

My percent completed track is working just fine, and I've got the piece of code for the next whole percent, the trouble I'm having now is tracking the number of quests needed to get to that next percent, what I have so far is:

Code:
#CLASS {RQE}
#ALIAS Locate {#mapquery (%concat( "[Name] = '", %replace( "%-1", "'", "''"), "'"))}
#VAR perc {%concat( %eval( %1*100/%2), ".", %mod( %1*1000000/%2, 10000), "%")}
#VAR rqerate {@perc( @rqesolved, @rqe)}
#VAR rqesolved {1902}
#VAR rqe {2237}
#VAR nrate {%eval( %int( @rqerate)+1)%}
#VAR nquests {}
#TRIGGER {^You finished (%d) random quests, failed (%d) and abandoned (%d) of them.$} {
  rqesolved = %1
  rqe = %eval( %1+%2+%3)
  #ECHO %ansi( grey)Your RQE Completion Rate is @rqerate~. You need @nquests quests to reach @nrate~.
  }
#CLASS 0


I've tried a number of different things, but I'm unable to obtain a relevant amount of quests needed to reach that next percent. I'm not off by only 5 or so, I keep ending up off by hundreds, sometimes even thousands.

my bad, i misunderstood, try this?

Change your perc function value to
Code:
%eval( %1*100.0/%2)
you still get the same decimal value, but without the % the number can be tested against

Then add this to your trigger

Code:
nquests=0
#WHILE (%eval( (%1+@nquests)*100.0/(%2+@nquests))<%eval( %int( @rqerate)+1)) {nquests=%eval( @nquests+1)}
