[Help] How to convert numbers

[Assailer]

Guys, How do i convert a floating value to integer in xml scipts?

<set_value name="$intvalue" exact="(int)$floatvalue"/>
or
<set_value name="$intvalue" exact="floor($floatvalue)"/>
or
... ?

I want to get rid of the fractional part.

a trailing i, or f for float.
($floatvalue)i
i.e. (player.money/$cost)i

Are the xml schema the only source for such information as described above? When I discovered that values could be cast with trailing letters that look like identifiers I was so annoyed that I initially named that token group "stupid_inexplicable_trailing_f" in my little translator thingy.

Those 'special' inexplicable tricks take quite a bit of effort to find, understand and successfully use them by trial/error. Your best bet is to ask here or to go through line by line the original scripts in hope to find what you are looking for.
Semantics for certain commands would require much more explanation to understand. I would like EGO to focus on fixing pathfinding first before spending time with documentation

Line by line by hand? Yeah... no.

As with all other problems in life, PERL TO THE RESCUE! Or maybe a library to extract grammars from xml files. That might work better.

I'll see if I can extract a full grammar for the language and post it here. I'm tired of not knowing how on earth to even start writing a mod.

(2 minutes later) EDIT: Here's a dump out of some of the core of the language. Pretty crude and only marginally useful, but at least it does give a list of a lot of the more complicated commands, and details what parameters the more basic commands take.
