BTW: the xposs is recieved from a server so i cant just say its a float, i need it converted to a float with 0.0f behind:
xposs = "951.9791"
xspawn = float.Parse(yposs);
this just returns 951.9791 in a float but i want 951.9791f
i have also tried:
xposs = "951.9791"
xspawn = float.Parse(yposs) + 0.0f;
this still does not work.
I need it to be 0.0f format becaouse i use it in a Vector3(), and not having the f does not seem to work (well it works but the cordinates are totally wrong, and if i manually press f after it works.)
f postfix is applied only to literals in code. It is used to denote literal values as float. If no postfix is present - literal value will be of type double
you can pass the result of float.Parse(stringValue) into Vector3 and Vector2 as constructor arguments in Unity 3d
The next code create a Vector3 object with x y z equal to value set in string
string sideSize = "12.5";
float vectorSide = float.Parse(sideSize, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Vector3 resultVector = new Vector3(vectorSide, vectorSide, vectorSide); //create vector3 with x = y = z = 12.5
the "f" suffix is supplied in literal values to denote the data type
- f for float
- m for decimal
- d for double
Floats are just a numeric value with type System.Single. They don't have an f behind it. That's just the notation C# uses for float literals. float.Parse returns a float, it's not possible or necessary to add an f.
