Title: Allow Math in Scalar Inputs
Post by: WAS on March 13, 2022, 06:01:31 PM
It would be cool if we could do math expressions within scalar inputs.

Say I have a ridiculously arbitrary number like 35216.122, but it's important to whatever I'm doing. Now I need half of that for something else. It would be cool if instead of opening my calculator, or sitting there doing some math, if I could simply input: 35216.122/2

TG could either then just parse it to 17608.061 or retain the expression and do the math at runtime.

There's a divide function (it won't show the outcome though), but I get your point.

Yeah that's just for constant scalars and stuff though. I mean any integer input. This functionality is in other software too. Blender for example.
