Easy Math Question - Rounding and Decimals

by Nicolai Dutka · in Torque Game Engine · 10/13/2007 (2:58 pm) · 3 replies

I just want this to ALWAYS return a whole integer:

( 1 + (%rand1 / 100) ) * 180;

Right now, all I get is decimals because of the percentage multiplier.

Use mFloor or mCeil to round a number.

This makes it round properly. Note the '+0.5':

mFloor( ( 1 + (%rand1 / 100) ) * 180 +0.5);
