Floats

This part of ikarus implements support for 32 bit IEEE 754 floats in Daedalus. The script was originally created to edit zFLOAT and zREAL variables, but can also be used to arithmetic operations on real float values (not to be confused with Daedalus floats).

Initialization

The best way to initialize all Ikarus functions is to call MEM_InitAll() in the Init_Global() initialization function.

Warning

If you want to use Ikarus in Gothic 1, it is best to define your own Init_Global() function and call it from every world initialization function.

MEM_InitAll();

Functions

Danger

Ikarus floats are saved as int but it doesn't mean that you can use arithmetic operators on them. All operations on floats must be done with functions listed below.

mkf

mkf

(make float) Converts the input integer x to a float value. 

1
func int mkf(var int x)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The input integer

The function returns the float representation of the input integer x.

truncf

truncf

(truncate float) Truncates the decimal part of the input float x. 

1
func int truncf(var int x)

1
func int divf(var int x, var int y)

invf

invf

(inverse float) Computes the inverse of the input float. 

1
func int invf(var int x)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The input float

Return value

The function returns the inverse of the x, calculated as 1/x.

gf

1
func int gf(var int x, var int y)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The first float
  • var int y
    The second float

Return value

The function returns TRUE if x is greater than y, FALSE is returned otherwise.

gef

gef

(greater or equal) Checks if the first float is greater than or equal to the second float. 

1
func int gef(var int x, var int y)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The first float
  • var int y
    The second float

Return value

The function returns TRUE if x is greater than or equal to y, FALSE is returned otherwise.

lf

lf

(lower) Checks if the first float is less than the second float. 

1
func int lf(var int x, var int y)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The first float
  • var int y
    The second float

Return value

The function returns TRUE if x is less than y, FALSE is returned otherwise.

lef

lef

(lower or equal) Checks if the first float is less than or equal to the second float. 

1
func int lef(var int x, var int y)
Parameters
  • var int x
    The first float
