Kick

[Frodie]

I need help with Firearm kick.

Basically I need to make the str bonuses to be no more that +2.
I can add the str bonus but can't cap it at 2

field[wAttBonus].value += maximum(#attrmod[aSTR], 0)

 

[Aaron]

var bonus as number
bonus += maximum(#attrmod[aSTR], 0)

if (bonus > 0) then
bonus = minimum(bonus, 2)
endif

field[wAttBonus].value += bonus

 

[Mathias]

Here's a version with even less typing:

field[wAttBonus].value += minimum(#attrbonus[aSTR],2)

(#attrbonus[] is #attrmod[] with maximum(,0) built in). (There's also #attrbonus1[])

 

[Frodie]

Cool, Thank yall!

 

[ShadowChemosh]

(There's also #attrbonus1[])

So is this saying maximum(,1) then? So that 1 is the smallest value returned?

Runs off to add the other new macros to his list of COOL hidden HL features.

 

[Mathias]

#attrbonus1[aSTR]

is translated by the compiler into:

maximum(hero.child[aSTR].field[aModBonus].value,1)

(See the v2.4 FAQ entry for the announcement of this one)

Thanks, useful macros for putting in my tool belt...

Yea I should and compile them all together actually. Hmm a wiki would work really well for all this....

So use to having online manuals for my programming languages that I miss it for HL.
