Solved Negative value by resuming a value

[Aralwen]

Hello ! I have a pretty annoying problem. I have a number in a value, I want to transcribe this number under the negative by resuming the value set before

For example, in {Border} there are 500. I would like that in {BorderNegative} it display -500
by resuming {Border}

I totally block, thanks in advance to those who will help me

Code:

In line 4, I do not see how to add a - before the value

command /borderdefine:
    trigger:
        set {Border} to 500
        set {BorderNegative} to {Border}

command /info:
    trigger:
        send "Border: %{Border}%"
        send "Border Negative: %{BorderNegative}%"

try

set {BorderNegative} to "-%{Border}%" parsed as number

set {BorderNegative} to "-%{Border}%" parsed as number

Hehe you are welcome. I just so happened to have done that exact same thing the other day... I decided to try that and it worked
Glad to help

Alternatively:

command /borderdefine:
    trigger:
        set {Border} to 500
        set {BorderNegative} to ({Border} * -1)

Multiplication with -1 always reverses the number

Not bad as an alternative, thank's !
