Strange % issue in GE

[bamby1983]

This works:

Code: Select all

if (frame%2==0)
    x+=1;


But GE does not allow this to execute and says it's an error:

Code: Select all

if (animpos%2==0)
    animpos+=1;


Would anyone know why?

That's because % can only be used with integers, and oddly enough, animpos is not an integer. You can cast it to be one though, so putting (int) before it will make that line work.

Thanks Sky! You know everything about GE, don't you!

I thought animpos would have been an integer coz you can't have a fractional value of the animation position.

Try adding an (int) just before anipmos (With the ( and ) )

Thanks hblade. +1 for you although sky answered this.
