| ''fixed a_GetCVarFixed(str name)'' | ZDoom provides [[zdoom>GetCVar]] for ints and [[zdoom>GetCVarString]] for strings, but doesn't provide a way to retrieve the value of ''float'' CVars. ACSUtils implements ''GetCVarFixed'' by calling [[zdoom>GetCVarString]] to retrieve the value of the CVar as a string, and parsing it with [[number_parsing|atof]]. |

| <note important>The function is called ''a_GetCVarFixed'' and not ''GetCVarFixed'' because [[GDCC]] defines its own broken ''GetCVarFixed'', which causes a compilation error if another function named ''GetCVarFixed'' exists.</note> | <note important>The function names begin with ''a_'' because [[GDCC]] defines its own broken ''GetCVarFixed'', which causes a compilation error if another function named ''GetCVarFixed'' exists.</note> |

| ===== GetUserCVarFixed ===== | <note tip>If you're not using [[GDCC]], you can remove the ''a_'' prefix by adding the following to your code: |
| | <code> |
| | function GetCVarFixed(str name) |
| | { |
| | return a_GetCVarFixed(name); |
| | } |
| | |
| | function GetUserCVarFixed(int player, str name) |
| | { |
| | return a_GetUserCVarFixed(player, name); |
| | } |
| | </code> |

| | ===== Functions ===== |
| | |
| | ==== GetCVarFixed ==== |
| | ''fixed a_GetCVarFixed(str name)'' |
| | |
| | Analogous to [[zdoom>GetCVar]] and [[zdoom>GetCVarString]]. |
| | |
| | ==== GetUserCVarFixed ==== |
| ''fixed a_GetUserCVarFixed(int player, str name)'' | ''fixed a_GetUserCVarFixed(int player, str name)'' |
| |
| An equivalent function for [[zdoom>GetUserCVar]] and [[zdoom>GetUserCVarString]]. | A version of ''GetCVarFixed'' for user CVars. Calls [[zdoom>GetCVarString]] internally instead of [[zdoom>GetCVar]]. Analogous to [[zdoom>GetUserCVar]] and [[zdoom>GetUserCVarString]]. |
