Formula

ingenious.applications

Hello everyone. I am currently trying to fix a display for the player that shows them their current "funds." I have three integers in the formula and I thought I had it correctly, but something must be wrong because nothing ever adds up.

game.World Bank +( game.Income - game.Expenses )

game.World Bank is the integer that should always show in the display and I need it to update based upon the information at the time from the other two integers.

Should it be "game.World Bank = ( game.Income - game.Expenses )"? That works with code... I can't remember how GS does math... I never used it as I suck at math. LOL.

Or, if you need it to keep its current value and add the others on top of that: "game.World Bank += ( game.Income - game.Expenses )"

Hello POLYGAMe. Yes, I need to keep the current value and just add (or subtract) modifiers to/from it. I'll try that segment of code in a little while and see if it works. Thanks.

Hi @ingeniousapplications

Or what about:

game.World Bank = game.World Bank +( game.Income - game.Expenses )

Edit: hang on, i see now, that's what you've got already; personally I've no idea why that shouldn't work..
