Solving Multi-Step Equations and Generating Random Numbers

Whether you are splitting resources evenly, scaling geometric builds, or picking a random number on a server, the /calculator command handles custom math formulas and random rolls directly in your chat box.

Solving Multi-Step Equations

1. Press T or / to open chat and type /calculator <expression>.

2. Combine addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in a single formula, using parentheses to control the order of operations.

3. Press Enter to read the answer in your chat log. You do not need to worry about mistyped formulas or accidental divide-by-zero errors, as the mod catches invalid inputs to prevent crashes.

Using Powers, Roots, and Random Rolls

For specialized calculations or minigames, use dedicated subcommands instead of writing out long manual equations:

  • Exponents: Run /calculator sq <number> to square a number, /calculator cube <number> to cube it, or /calculator power <base> <exponent> to raise a base to any specific power.
  • Square Roots: Run /calculator sqrt <number> when scaling down area measurements.
  • Random Numbers: Run /calculator random <max> to generate a random number between zero and your chosen maximum value, useful for randomized block palettes or minigame turns.

If you forget any command syntax mid-session, type /calculator help to view the in-game help list.
