    Ok... found it in one of my old discussions.

    You have to use expression "round"

    @Simple Gamer Arts - also, if you DON'T want it to be rounded up (sometimes this can adversely affect what you're trying to achieve, i.e. your max for something might be eg, 14, but you 'round' say, 14.9, and end up with 15), you can also just use 'floor' which will simply return the integer/whole portion of the number (and also 'ceiling' which will ALWAYS round UP, so 0.21 becomes 1, etc.), if that helps... Just an alternative for each scanario... :smile:

    Ahh... ...and I just noticed that this is the 'GS Online' area - so I'm hoping the functions I mentioned are actually implemented for you at this point... :wink:

    @Japster Hey thanks for that info. I'm sure it will come in useful at some point.
