Move to loc help.

Im currently making a macro that I need to be able to move my char to a loc x,y. The bigest problem im having is getting a distance to the loc. Here is some code that Im using that I thought should work.

Sub main

/varset v71 $char(x)
/varset v72 $char(y)
/echo $distance($v71,$v72)

/return

Now this should return a value of 0.0 if I understand correctly. What it does return is wierd numbers. If anyone can help me find a good way to make a run to loc it would be a great help.

try /echo $distance($char(y),$char(x))

EQ has a tendancy to reverse the x,y coords into y,x.

That was the trick works like a charm. Thanks a ton. I bashed my head on this for over a hour. Here I was getting the right responce but was giving it the wrong variables. I guess thats why you need to take some math other than basic .........

Thanks again
