I'm using a plain and simple X + Sin(Angle) formula (along with Y using Cos), and after some time testing stuff when the object is moving in a weird way (only right/left/up/down and not diagonal), I discover that the INI Object does not take decimals in the value-saving.. >_>
Is there any way to make it allow decimals? I don't wanna start converting values to strings if I don't have to, as I have quite alot of coding that'd need to be modified if that is the case.
Thanks in advance! <3

Just use normal integers, but multiply it with 100. Then, when you position the object, you divide it with 100 again. That's one way to do it.
What exactly are you loading from the INI file? The object's speed?

Numbers probably.

If converting to a string is not an option, I don't see how multiplying and dividing would be a better solution. If it's solely the INI objects fault...Well then yeah, you're pretty much screwed  In that case just convert to strings.

You only have to convert stuff to strings when you save it into the INI file. (as Str$(value))

I'll go with multiplying by 100.. Now my code's screwed up somewhere because I haven't converted it properly everywhere (I saved 100 and 0.01 in two global values so I can attain them easily). By the way I'm saving a bunch of stuff like X and Y positions including angles and destination points. I got alot more tho.
