Store commands alter the contents of memory locations

==[[Operators]]:==
{{Store Commands}}

== Store ==

Store will store a value in a memory location:

a b store

will store a into b. Rather than a and b, you are more likely to see something like this:

40 .up store

which will store 40 into the [[sysvar]] [[.up]]

== Inc and Dec ==

Inc increases a memory location by 1

Dec increases a memory location by 1

You cannot inc or dec the [[sysvars]] 1 - 8.

== 'Value Freezing' ==

Thanks to Endy for the following:

You can hold memory locations at certain values using inc and dec. This technique allows you to "freeze" values or to raise or lower a number to a value and then freeze it. <br>
This is best used for when you need a value at a constant number, but without the cost of continously storring it.

' Basic method to demonstrate
' Will keep .tieloc at -1 permanently
cond
start
.tieloc *.tieloc *.tieloc div mult inc
.tieloc dec
stop

' More complex method demonstrates freezing
' at a value with .ploc=7
cond
start
' When *.ploc = 7 dec by 1
.ploc *.ploc 7 sub 1000 mult add dec
.ploc inc
stop

Primarily these are for use with SG's or [[Conditionless Bots|condtionless bots]] but I'm sure you all can find other uses for them. Unfortunately memory locations 1 - 8 do not allow this.
