${Me.AAExp} Reporting wrong number

The value returned when /echo'ing ${ME.AAExp} isn't reporting the correct number.

${Me.AAPoints} is still correct.

This is from the MQ2-20041014b build.

It's correct....

I think what you're wanting is ${Me.PctAAExp}

'AAExp' is the actual number that's stored in memory, which...if you take that value and divide by 330, you'll get the % value. Either way, I think what you want is ${Me.PctAAExp}

No, the Actual number of AA's I have spent as well as un-spent is what I want, not the PctAAExp.

int AAExp , and int AAPoints are exactly what I want to use, AAExp is just incorrect.

Well then you shouldn't be using Me.AAExp.. I don't think the value you are asking for is availiable to MQ atm.

AAExp has never been what you described. It has always been the raw data for PctAAExp. I know this very well because I've been working with those structs for years.

What you are wanting has never been in the MQ code because it has never been found in memory.

Code: Select all

int AAExp                  AA exp 
 
int AAPoints              Unused AA points 
 
Ok cool. Thanks for clearing that up Amadeus.

The readme could benefit from this clarification too. The above is the only thing mentioned, which lead me to believe otherwise.

Indeed it could hehe. You could send a PM to Wassup regarding this and I'm sure he'll change it..

Am I the only one that doesn't see anything the least bit unclear here? AAExp shows your experience and AAPoints shows your unspent points, just as the manual says. What's not clear?

The state of the educational system apparently.

I added a few words to the description, even though I didn't think it needed any more.

Maybe you are if you can't determine what was unclear by reading the whole thread.

Still don't know what you mean by not reporting the correct number.

Seems to be fine to me even with just AA Exp as the description.

Maybe you are thinking it is supposed to return something else?

Wassup: I was reading the ${Me.AAExp} to mean "the number of AA points I have spent", since the entry directly following (AAPoints) said "Unused AA points". Yes, I know this is incorrect now as Amadeus seems to have understood exactly what I wanted.

couldn't you find total AA and unspent via UI?

i don't have clue -- just thought :?:
