Need some help.
 
Heh Im working on making a trigger to keep track of my Powerlevel on a game to then after calculate how much powerlevel ive gained for the day.. and ive done a good job at it except for the fact that..
<Powerlevel (8,701,191,669,159/208,828,600,059,821)>
as you can see theres a comma so I had to use like %d,%d,%d, and then use some fancy stuff to make the number go back together. But I wanted to know if there was a more simple way than making a new trigger for each set of ,'s. Would save me a lot of trouble if you guys could help me out on that one Thanks

Use %n. This wildcard matches numbers with commas, and when you use %n to get the matched value, it returns the number without commas.

Hrm.. Yeah well I was like why didnt I think of that at first.. Then I remembered that the variables for #add and #math functions only work with numbers up to 2.1 bil or so..if the answer is higher than that I think it goes into negatives.. Got any idea on how to fix that using your %n wildcard?
