Number Formatting

[CerialPvP]

Suggestion

Basically, make it so you can specify numbers with underscores. Example: set {_n} to 10_000, give player 1_024 of barrier

Why?

1. Most programming languages, such as Python and Java, already have this feature.
2. For big numbers, it is a pain to write them out and count the length to make sure the number is correct and that we didn't enter a high number.

I think we should prefer commas if possible, e.g. give player 1,024 of barrier. This would break some existing list parsing, e.g. set {_list::*} to 1,100, but that is already confusing code imo

I think that's pretty dangerous, especially with things like functions. It's very common to write location(1,104,188.3) for example

[APickledWalrus]

yeah that's fair. it's probably more common than i'm thinking

Also note some European countries use comma to denote decimals (where, for example, the US uses the '.'), adding more to the confusion.

I think this is a no-brainer. Super easy to add and does a lot for readability (the version with the underscore of course).
