a real 'nice' bug

  • with activating a numerical input field - the connected variable switches from number to string
  • the incorrect variable type(s) is/are repaired internally on leave (???) the slide

example - all three numeric entries activated -> all three connected vars are string !!!

you have to expand your patch for all numeric entry fields, which are you using

var value1 = Number( player.GetVar('number1') );
var value2 = Number( player.GetVar('number2') );
var value3 = Number( player.GetVar('number3') );

you can use "Number( ... )" or "parseInt( ... )" - both works
