|WARNING⚠️| [ ] + 1 for changing properties wont work

So you see how some guides show code with

Set Property: "insert property here"
Value to: [ ] + 1 ?

Well… I was helping @top-z because his selling system didn’t work. and we couldn’t find what went wrong. I say “sir I cant find where the properties are being changed”. He said it was in the trigger so I look. and see

Set Property: "not leaking it"
                            Value to: [ ] + 1 .

What that’s doing is making the property nothing(0) + 1. when I made it

Set Property: "still not leaking"
Value to: [ get property: "still not leaking" ] + 1

, it worked.

If I’m wrong, correct me. But this didn’t work for Top Z and might’ve been a bug that was quietly fixed on August 30th.

okay still working on 2 guides. uhm ceeya

reason for psa

was told to. if is wrong just tell me and I fix.

This is a bit weirdly formatted. Also, my voting system uses this a lot, and that works. I might be misunderstanding it though.

it undid my formating but what im trying to say it didn’t work

Wait, so what does +1 mean? Does that just set the property to one?

No. He means that adding one to it doesn’t work.

@Cryptoraider_Gemkit, can you show some screenshots?

value + 1 works when the property is a number value, when its a text value, it concatenates it

Screenshot 2023-10-20 191549
this is bare bones information. and is just the point. top didn’t work and bottom did. @ClicClac + 1 is the top
@getrithekd here is the screenshot of the sample i made
and @kyro the properties are numbers (just for context)

sorry for late response i was eating dinner

i dont get it, top one obviously isn’t gonna work because you’re not adding something to the actual property (or to anything at all)

the top one is what + 1 is. this is what I’m trying to say wont work. I’ve seen some guides using it such as How to make a simple fishing system AND Loot Tables [SIMPLIFIED, UPDATED, AND WITH PICTURES] 4/10 - #29 by FireAlta2183 (no hate to blizzy)

Yeah.

blizzys guide used a variable and gave players the amount that the variable states, so it doesn’t really

Is this a bug guide, or a community made guide?

it changes the property the variable is for the loottable

see?

its kind of a psa but more for creating maps

Hmm Ok! You could say what the square means, like a key or something! it is kind of confusing, maybe use formatting?

Perhaps add PSA to it?

the square is used because of me using scartchblocks on the scratch forum and is just what i am used to. the square just means “a input”

Dont know what that means! But PSA seems like a better fit!
