Math is not working
 
Trigger

You now have &cgold coins.

splgold = @cgold - @oldgold / %eval (%numitems (@plist)+1)

#forall @plist {give $@splgold %I}

Once I make a kill the below trigger happens to update my 'oldgold' before I pick up any

Trigger

^|| Gold Coins: &oldgold Experience Pts: &cexp (&needed needed)


I've tried to use #math and it didnt seem to work either. Different wasy to group the equation and it would return a 0 value. Now it's just puting splgold = cgold not sure what else to do.
Im trying to take the amount i picked up and divide by the number of ppl in my group list the +1 is to include myself and then give that split amount out to the group members.

All equations now have to be in parenthesis, which makes the %eval function more or less redundant.
#MATH -should- work, but there is little reason to use it.

splgold = (@cgold - @oldgold / (%numitems(@plist)+1))

So I tried that it's still not doing anything but assigning the value of oldgold to splgold I also tried


splgold = (@cgold - @oldgold) / (%numitems(@plist)+1)

splgold = (@cgold - @oldgold / (%numitems(@plist)+1))

splgold = ((@cgold - @oldgold) / (%numitems(@plist)+1))

This is trigger after i pick up gold coins.

You now have &cgold coins.


after i kill a mob my score information is opened to get the current gold i have which is placed into the oldgold variable.

Trigger

^|| Gold Coins: &oldgold Experience Pts: @cexp (&needed needed)

(no script text) the value is assigned from the pattern. Is this maybe why im having the issue?

Well, if you are having trouble getting the syntax right, I would make use of #SAY to ensure you are getting the proper values along the way.

That trigger may not even be firing at all

#SAY Fired!
#SAY oldgold is @oldgold when it should be %1

is a great way to test that
