That's just false. Assigning 1 to a number variable or a text variable, and using that in an equation, will yield a value.

Assigning "" to a variable will yield NaN.

Which is what I meant in my posts.

Huh. Thanks, that's very useful.

Great way to generate sound effects. And it's free, can't beat that.

Considering that I have to label global variables as "numbers" or "text," I don't see your point.

This might be a bit off-topic, but can you post an example of your work? I'm trying to learn as much about Construct 2 as possible.

500 reputation is too high of a requirement.

Given the fact that purchasing a license upgrade from personal to business isn't an option in the store, I'd say very few people.

I'd love to make it big, but my first few games are probably going to be simple and free.

I know one thing for sure, I wish the personal license was half the price, but it wasn't a bad purchase.

In one of the games I'm making, I noticed a minor nuance that isn't implemented. When I convert the input from a text box to a variable, even though it's a "number" variable, if I inputted text, or had no input, it would come out as NaN.

I think if it's a "number" variable, any inputs to it should automatically be converted to int(). I think the same is true for "text."

I'll definitely add you to the credits. It doesn't follow the cursor but instead goes in the reverse direction.

I suspect you should look into mysql databases and php, and start from there.

Much appreciated. Now there's a new problem, it goes both above and below the core (only want it to go above), and it seems to be of unlimited distance.

No. I'm trying to raise the rods up, not down. Raise the rods up with the cursor.
