Input number

[Skyline]

I'm thinking of making some kind of banking system, but I need to know how to input numbers. The logical thing to do was look at Window_InputNumber, but I can't find out what the 'outcome' of the input is. I mean, when the person has chosen their amount (Say, 300), what part of it determins what 300 is represented as?

Thanks

It should be @number, though I'm not sure... haven't looked into that class for ages...

I think it is, thanks.

How would I call the input window? Because i'd have thought it would have been a scene (Considering you have to interact with it).

Well, you could define @number as $input_number (extended the name to prevent double naming of global variables). Now being a global variable, you can refer to it everywhere. You need to pay attention though, it'll take additional CPU and you should also check if $input_number != nil before doing anything with it to prevent errors.

I have that bit covered, thanks

How would I call the Window_InputNumber? Because when I call it as a window it desn't work ':| I'd have thought it should have been a scene.

You can call it by event commands ingame or by setting as to a window in the conspirative class and setting it to active... you can view Sharks or my (link in signature) Window tutorial for learning how to do that...
