My code is suppossed to have a progressbar that will show you how full your storage is, but instead it says that the bits / capacity * 100 is 0, and only changes it to 100% once its at max, and i have no idea why. The code in question:
func _process(delta):
$Label.text = str(Bits)
Second += delta
if Bits > 0:
$ProgressBar.value = round(Bits / Capacity) * 100
print(round(Bits / Capacity) * 100)
if Second > 1:
Second = 0.001
if Bits < Capacity and Bits + Spark_Gens < Capacity:
Bits = Bits + Spark_Gens
if Spark_Gens > 0:
$AudioStreamPlayer.play()
else:
Bits = Capacity
I assume that both Bits and Capacity are integer values, right? If that’s the case, you’ll only get an integer value as the result of that division - which isn’t what you want. To ensure that you get floating point math, at least one of the values must be a float. A simple change to make it would would be:
round(float(Bits) / Capacity) * 100
Notice that I’ve forced the Bits value to be a float.
This is typical of many programming languages, including GDScript.
That doesnt work, now its stuck on 0%.

I’m pretty sure this IS your problem - though, maybe you have a similar issue elsewhere too. You definitely want float math, and you’ll only get that if one of the values is, itself, a float. Also, not sure why you need the round call.
Happy to take a look if the project is available for review.
