jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	[Moderator (Sealeopard): Moved topic from 'Scripts' to 'Starters' forum due to lack of script in body] Does anyone remember which version of Kix saw the inclusion of floats? Is there any way to perform floating point math in previous versions? i.e. (5/10)=0.5 [ 17.

Kixtart does a left & right evaluation with the left most part of operation defining the variable type for the result. You have to force it do floating point arithmetic. This is in the manual. _________________________ Jack

Chris S. Chris S. MM club member Registered: 2002-03-18 Posts: 2368 Loc: Earth	Jack, I think Jim is talking about using a version of KiX (e.g. less than 4.10) that doesn't support floating integers.
