Gold display gone haywire

[Kes]

For no reason which I can see, the display of how much gold the player has changed from the normal to decimal point.  

Can anyone suggest causes for this, and/or point me to where in the default scripts this is handled?

Thank you.

This means that at some point, a float is given to a method that changes your gold.

Good scripts gone bad!!

One of your shop scripts, or some other script that affects gold, did a calculation and failed to cast the result back into an integer (which can be fixed by adding .to_i to the result).

@wavelength

I don't have a shop script, so which default script should I be looking at?

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

Did you have any script that modifies gold? Like a script that handle's monster drops after battles etc.

You could always probably just add this

class Game_Party  def gold    return @gold.to_i  endend

I've passed this on to my tester, but he's just about to go out and so won't get to it for a couple of hours at least.

Here's hoping!

And thanks.

It's more of a last line of defense though, better find whatever it is than sent a float to your gold.

Most likely something divided integers into a float, such as 7/2 = 3.5.  Either track down what sets it, or just do what Adiktuzmiko posted and keep the float carry-over.

My problem is that, not being a scripter, I don't know what I should be looking for.

Use that.

I'm waiting for my tester to come back to me.  I have never had this problem, so can't reproduce it.  It is so frustrating.

 

[Engr. Adiktuzmiko]

@Funplayer - Something like 7/2 cannot be the cause because an integer divided by an integer always return an integer in RGSSx. Operations only return a float if there is at least one float being operated upon.

 

[Kes]

We couldn't track down the float, but the snippet cured it.
