==Number Change Action==

Number: Change can perform 7 mathematical operations on the 4 types of scoped numbers.
- When selecting the VARIABLE number to change, there's a NUMBER button for choosing action target filters to choose a specific object, player, or team

<span style="text-size: 15px">'''Operations'''</span>

*Set: Assign the Source to the VARIABLE, then add the Value setting
*Increment: Add the Source to the VARIABLE's current value, then add the Value setting
*Decrement: Subtract the Source from the VARIABLE's current value, then add the Value setting
*Multiply: Multiply the Source with the VARIABLE's current value, then add the Value setting
*Divide: Divide the Source by the VARIABLE's current value, then add the Value setting
*Remainder: Divide the Source by the VARIABLE's current value but return the remainder (Note: if the number is negative, then its remainder will be negative. The sign of the divisor is ignored.)
*Random: Assign a random number in a range to the VARIABLE

*The numbers or values used (in the Source property) for the math operation to change the VARIABLE do NOT have an action target filter option (except Object Count), so the only options are the THIS or ACTIVATOR (if available) object's number
*Global & Team scope numbers can be directly specified under Source
*For Source setting's Number or Game Value options, the THIS object (which the script is attached to) is the default
*When the Message Received, Power Check, Interacted, Number Check, or Boundary Check conditions are selected, the Object setting becomes available under Source which has the ACTIVATOR options as well as the THIS option

*ACTIVATOR can be powerful since it can return a Number or Game Value for objects/players that the script isn't attached to (remote object selection)
*Note that players can't have scripts attached so ''this is the only way to read their Numbers or Game Values''

*Source: Number: Object has the Object, Player and Team scope options which lets you select a number for the THIS (or sometimes ACTIVATOR) object, so a number can be read and used for a specific object, player, or the team setting of the object (the channel option appears for player or team)

*The Remainder Operation in Number Change is a good way to have a repeating sequence of numbers like Remainder(Constant 4) gives you 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 1, 2... Use Number Change Increment Constant 1 followed by Number Change Remainder 4
