'Maximum' function behaving badly.

Phase Pre-attributes, priority 10000

Code:

field[abValue].value += maximum(hero.childfound[aINT].field[aBonus].value,2)



field[abSumm].text = field[abValue].value

Entered value of 16 for hero's Intelligence, but abValue still reporting value of 2. Don't know why. Please tell me why.

You are running the script before attributes have been calculated so hero.childfound[aINT].field[aBonus].value is 0 and 2 is greater than 0.

For stuff like this add debug statements:

Code:

field[abValue].value += maximum(hero.childfound[aINT].field[aBonus].value,2)

debug hero.childfound[aINT].field[aBonus].value

field[abSumm].text = field[abValue].value

Sure enough, that was the issue. It's strange because originally I had the timing at Post Attributes 10000, but it wasn't working, which is why I changed it. But it works now, so all good. Thanks SC!
