Set Max and Min for variables

[lindsay-jb]

Hello! I'm trying to set 100 as the max and 0 for the min of some variables I have. I found some topics on here that helped me make this code:

Code: Select all

default rowan_nerve = 50

init python:
    def limit_nerve_rowan():
        try:
            if rowan_nerve < 0:
                rowan_nerve = 0
            elif rowan_nerve > 100:
                rowan_nerve = 100
        except:
            pass

    config.python_callbacks.append(limit_nerve_rowan)

However, while the game will play it doesn't actually limit anything. It'll go all the way down to -150 lol. I'm thinking that it might be because I need to set this as a global variable? If that's the case, that would make sense. However I'm not exactly certain how I would go about setting this all up as a global variable. As of now, it's just set up as you can see in the code. Any help would be appreciated!

I can see a couple of potential reasons... I think when querying a variable with an if, it needs to be formatted as <= or >=, not just < or >. Then, setting a variable to a new value, it has to be preceeded with a $, so:

Code: Select all

if rowan_nerve <= 0:
	$ rowan_nerve = 0
elif rowan_nerve >= 100:
	$ rowan_nerve = 100

That's probably not all of it, though - just the bit that keeps tripping me up

Try

Code: Select all

default rowan_nerve = 50

init python:
    def limit_nerve_rowan():
        global rowan_nerve # <---
        try:
            if rowan_nerve < 0:
                rowan_nerve = 0
            elif rowan_nerve > 100:
                rowan_nerve = 100
        except:
            pass

    config.python_callbacks.append(limit_nerve_rowan)

Thanks so much for the responses! Alex, that worked perfectly. I was just missing defining the variable as a global nerve and it was simpler than I realized haha.
