Data Types

Reference for the fundamental data types utilized in Funky Trees expressions.

Numbers

Numbers represent quantitative values and include both integers and floating-point values (floats). They are the primary data type used for continuous mathematical calculations and telemetry data.

  • Format: Standard numerical representation.
  • Examples: 1, 1314, 12.0003, 0.334.

Booleans

Booleans represent logic states and are primarily used for conditional statements, toggles, and binary activation groups.

  • Literal Values: True, False.
  • Numeric Conversion: Booleans are dynamically typed in Funky Trees. When evaluated in a numeric context (in conjunction with number-type data), booleans automatically convert to specific integer values:
    • True evaluates to 1.
    • False evaluates to -1.
  • Behavior: Booleans maintain their literal True/False states when evaluated independently of other data types.

Strings

Strings are sequences of alphanumeric characters representing text data.

  • Format: Text must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("").
  • Examples: "Text", "Boom 50", "Cannon".
  • Usage: Strings are utilized for weapon identification and as arguments for specific functions.
    • Variable Example: The SelectedWeapon variable returns a string representing the name of the active weapon.
    • Function Example: The ammo("string") function requires a string input to identify the weapon being queried.
