Some operational commands

Some operational commands that allow better usability for cps

Code: [Select]

absolute game var nonegatives //Sets the game variable nonegatives to its absolute (Removes the sign)
[sign course var direction] //Returns -1, 0 or 1, depending on the value inside. If its negative, positive or 0.
clamp var i = 3, 10 //Clamps the var i aka keeps the value of var i inside two values (3 and 10 in this case)
seed = 1 //Sets the seed for randomizing
[seed] //Returns the seed used currently for randomizing.

What would you need these things for?

What would you need these things for?

Specially clamp and seed.
Seed for my dungeon games maybe and clamp for clamping variables.

I think I know what the seed is for, but I have no clue what a clamp is.

Clamp is for keeping a variable between two values
So instead of doing

Code: [Select]

if var time > 300
var time = 300
if var time < 0
var time = 0
We can do

Code: [Select]

clamp var time = 0, 300

I sort of get it, but like TingThing said, I'm not 100% sure how important that is to PB.
