Percentages

[Strider]

I'm wanting to calculate the percentage of two values and put them into a counter, but the formula I use only displays the end result counter as 0. The formula I'm using is as follows:

Objects: Value 1 Counter, Value 2 Counter, End Result Counter

Counter(Value 1) = Counter(Value 2) >>>>> Set Counter(End Result) to 100
Counter(Value 1) < Counter(Value 2) >>>>> Set Counter(End Result) to Counter(Value 1) / Counter(Value 2) * 100

Am I doing something wrong? Or can counters not display decimals?

That is fine the way it is. Add an action like this: Start of Frame, set counter 1 and 2 to 0.00 (so it is a floating point number).

The reason why it is 0 is because MMF2 rounds it after it divides, but before it multiplies by 100.

You can also multiply before dividing to get the result correctly rounded to an integer.
