Can somebody explain all of the Attributes

ChucklingMonkey

Hi everyone,
I am confused with what the different attributes do (I think thats what they are). Ex: interger.

Thanks

boolean is basically true or false
text is a text string
integer is a number (no decimal points)
real is a number (with decimal points, like a float in other programming)
angle is a value as an angle (0 to 359)
index i assume is an array

note: use search, it's quicker than waiting for someone to answer a fundamental question which has plenty of existing documentation on here and youtube.

`Attribute - Game, Scene, or Actor attributes contain values accessible by actors. An attribute holds data of a certain type. There are 6 data types that you can select from.

Boolean - true/false values.

Text - text values. e.g. This is a text value

Integer - Positive and negative whole numbers. e.g. 42

Real - Positive and negative numbers which can have decimal numbers. e.g. 3.14159

Angle - Positive whole numbers between and including 0 and 359.

Index - Positive whole numbers greater or equal to 0.
