Unfortunately, there is no built-in functionality to convert text to numbers. You’d have to make your own with blocks.
The best course of action would probably be to look in your system to see if you can have the property be a number property instead of a text property. But, if you really can’t, and you haven’t gotten a solution, I’ll see if I can write up some block code to turn text into numbers when I have the opportunity.

The issue is, (I’m still workin on steal a brainrot) I have my system set the base1.pos1.data property (the money per second of the pet) right from the name tag data using get in text blocks, which for some reason doesn’t allow it to save to a number property so I have to use text. any solution you might have would be much appreciated

You can. If I remember correctly (thanks to bh for this info), then set a variable to the substring containing the number you want to add. Then, set another different variable to that variable + money property.
Not 100% sure this works but this is what I remember.

Ok I couldn’t remember exactly what haha, so I just decided to make my own system converter for this based off the same principles (because why not).
Here’s the blocks for my example:
var1 should just be you getting your money per second, and changing var2 should be attached to your money property (instead of just changing it by 25).
And of course I set it to text so I could check if it works, but you can set your property to it now.

Have a nice evening and good luck with your game!
