Trouble with math
|
Sadly, I am having trouble with the #MATH command. I can get it to work, but I need it to do like (x/y)*z
I tried this.
stat
#VAR perchp1 %eval((@currhp/@maxhp) * 100)
#VAR perchp2 %eval(@perchp1 * 100)
#VAR percmana1 %eval(@currmana/@maxmana)
#VAR percmana2 %eval(@percmana1 * 100)
#VAR percmoves1 %eval(@currmoves/@maxmoves)
#VAR percmoves2 %eval(@percmoves1 * 100)
#WAIT 1000
#ECHO STATUS: @perchp2% HP, @percmana2% MANA, @percmov2% MOVES
stat is a command in the mud I play
I also tried #MATH perchp ((@currhp/@maxhp)*100) as well as #VAR perchp %eval((@currhp/@maxhp)*100). When I am at max hp it reports 100% hp no problem, I think the problem may be that the numbers divided dont always produce a whole number as a result...so instea of 5 10 50, it may be like 5.5 56.335 or whatnot, could that have an impact, and if so, how can i correct it?

You're right, thats the problem. zMUD only deals with whole numbers, so when you do something like 1/2 you dont get 0.5, but 1 (rounded up) and 1/3 is not 0.333 but 0 (rounded down as its less than 0.5)
So, in order to get a percentage, you have to do it the other way around:
(@currhp*100)/@maxhp
So you get instead of:
20/200 = 0.1*100 (The 0.1 was rounded to 0 by zmud, giving 0*100)
this:
(20*100)/200 = 10

That is still not working...it is either showing up as 0% or 100%, nothing in between :( Any other suggestions

stat
#VAR perchp1 %eval((@currhp * 100)/@maxhp)
#VAR percmana1 %eval((@currmana * 100)/@maxmana)
#VAR percmoves1 %eval((@currmoves * 100)/@maxmoves)
#ALA +1 {#ECHO STATUS: @perchp1% HP, @percmana1% MANA, @percmov1% MOVES}
NOTE: This is just a repeat of what Lady C. already told you.

Still is not working properly. Should the result still come out with non even numbers? Like, what if the result happens to be 5.33666445454667%...will zmud do that or is there a way to limit it to say 5.33%.
It may just be a setting or something, but I cannot get it to work properly. |

Update:
Here is an example. Say I have 1533 hp and my max is 2271..I get this
(currhp*100)/@maxhp= 1533* 100= 153300/2271=67.503302050991....can zmud show that as a result? Kjata said zmud only deals with whole numbers...i do not know if this is doable or not :(

zMUD 6.16 only works with integers. So, using your example:
(@currhp*100)/@maxhp = (1533*100)/2271 = 153300/2271 = 67
The remainder is ignored.
