The original way of making a backspace button. ~4% memory. 🟨

A fairly good solution to the problem, however this feels a little too brute forced, nevertheless, good.

(late) welcome to the forum, @teapot! I suggest reading guides in new-user-must-read and forum-tips.

Welcome to the forums! This is brute forced, but this is the only guide on this out there, unless you count the text operations guide.

This shows that nothing is impossible it’s all completely gimpossible!

Gimpossible just means impossible.

i know. but it sounded funny.

yeah, its me, Im the best
also, this could be created legit if we made an gim ascii system

What is a gim ascii system?

If we made a text encoding system

Couldn’t you also divide by ten and round down to remove a digit? If that works it should be a lot simpler. You would have to check if it was zero or negative still but it would require properties and could be triggered infinitely.

Well, they already did that in Text Operations, the problem with this is that properties could only store 5-6 letters using encoded numbers since numbers have an 11 digit limit (for properties), you can extend this to 7 letters (14 digits) using blocks but gimkit will round numbers using scientific notation (14-17 digits), even then you would have to assign each number to a 2 digit number to prevent incrementing bugs.

ex:
11 = a 1st letter :white_check_mark:
22 = j 10th letter :white_check_mark:
1 = a :x:
if 1 = a, 11 = aa :x: (there are 26 letters)
