Limiting Time Display

BluSpyder

I have a timer going by 0.1. While displaying this, some times it will display like 4.23882. I only want to display one decimal place, is there someway to force this to prevent from displaying more than one decimal place?

What do you use?

Every 0,1sec
change attribute to attribute + ...?

BluSpyder

Every 0.1 sec (run to completion) -> Change attribute game.timer to game.timer+0.1

Also tried interpolate (duration 0.1) instead of change attribute but i dont think that added up right anyways.

Look at this video, I think tshirtbooth tells how just to display
one decimal also...

thank for the link. This works perfect except is there someway to hide an unnecessary 0? I deleted some of the formula so it shows 00.0 as seconds. (05.0 = 5 seconds), but i wonder if you can hide the 0 before 5 while it's unused?

BluSpyder

i don't know if this was the best efficient solution, but i fixed it like this for future reference:

Rule -> if game.timer is < 10 then display (0.0 formula)
--->otherwise display (00.0 formula)

Thanks for posting this video link @GuaveGames. I just used the information to display a self time in seconds by using floor((self.Time%60/10)..floor(self.Time%10). Works just great (even though as a complete newbie, I have no idea what it's actually doing)
