  Another fairly recent topic that seems related and unaddressed. If it's reproducible, then a bug report on GitHub would help expedite a fix. I've never seen this myself though.

  As I've mentioned before, the values will change even if you run it on the same axis multiple times (x y or z even), but the distribution should be similar in the long run. For more consistent results, increase the sample size.

  I took a sample of 10m perlin noise values, sorted them, and recorded the threshold value for each percent of total samples.

  There will be some variation no matter what (that's why 50% isn't at exactly 0.5), but statistically speaking it should be close enough to not have any noticable difference in practice.

  You can adjust your ranges instead. If you use the chart I posted in your previous post regarding noise, you can get a pretty good approximation - 0-0.382 will contain roughly 10% of the returned values, 0.382-0.437 will be the next 10%, 0.437-0.462 will have your next 10%, ect. Edit: This is without normalization, which you shouldn't need.

  Also check you player collision boxes if you're running an animation.

  Sorry, I meant you're picking the player. You need to pick a target, that is closest to player.x, player.y.

  Your first event says pick nearest to target x and y, rather than player x and y.

  You could refer to the manual on expressions and system expressions.

  construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/project-primitives/events/expressions

  construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/system-reference/system-expressions

  Recommend you go through the beginner tutorials as well.

  Wait, this doesn't work exactly. If I, say, have 1.568M coins, and then I spend it on something, the numbers goes like 1.432575234M. Do you know a way to fix this?

  You can use the float(left(number,digits)) expressions to truncate a number. Or you can multiply by 1000, round(), then divide by 1000 to round to the nearest thousandth.

  Do you have another event setting the text to the variable by itself?

  Are you setting the right text object?

  You might have other events or behaviors causing issues.
