New ConvertFloatToString with decimal places

(1/1)

Andre Khromov:
Just wanted to post a new version of ConvertFloatToString action with a decimal place cut off.

This code is directly from the Playmaker C# file with the truncation of the string at the end.

Enjoy


--- Code: ---// (c) Copyright HutongGames, LLC 2010-2011. All rights reserved.

using UnityEngine;

namespace HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions
{
[ActionCategory(ActionCategory.Convert)]
[Tooltip("Converts a Float value to a String value.")]
public class ConvertFloatToString : FsmStateAction
{
[RequiredField]
[UIHint(UIHint.Variable)]
public FsmFloat floatVariable;
[RequiredField]
[UIHint(UIHint.Variable)]
public FsmString stringVariable;
public FsmInt numberOfDecimalPlaces;
public bool everyFrame;

public override void Reset ()
{
floatVariable = null;
stringVariable = null;
numberOfDecimalPlaces = 2;
everyFrame = false;
}

public override void OnEnter()
{
DoConvertFloatToString();

if (!everyFrame)
Finish();
}

public override void OnUpdate()
{
DoConvertFloatToString();
}

void DoConvertFloatToString ()
{
numberOfDecimalPlaces.Value = (numberOfDecimalPlaces.Value < 0) ? 0 : numberOfDecimalPlaces.Value; // doesn't allow negative numbers
stringVariable.Value = floatVariable.Value.ToString ("F" + numberOfDecimalPlaces.Value);
}
}
}

--- End code ---

Andre Khromov:
Also, I apologize that this post was a poll, but I couldn't see any other way to post a new message. Someone please clue me in for next time.

Thanks,

Andre

Nice. You can also check this action, to convert int to string using any format you want, you can adapt its code to, for instance, allow the end-user to define how many decimal places he wants for the float: http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=267.0

Andre Khromov:
Haha! I almost coded that! But it was late and I thought:

well... you know I could put in a format string text box, or I can cover what I want to do and probably 90% of the people like me.

So you totally did the right thing, and I cheesed out, but I thought I post it because hey... I saw someone post FloatSubtract when you can just use FloatAdd with a negative number :P
