Thanks, sure is relevant. I actually added the macro form in my last update.

Not sure if relevant, but I usually keep a handy Clamp function laying around.

// Text Macro Form
#define Clamp(N,L,H) max(min(N,H),L)

// Function Form
proc/Clamp(N=0,L=0,H=100)
    return max(min(N,H),L)

// Example Use:
proc/Test()
    var/d = 100
    d = Clamp(d,0,50) // d is now 50.
    world << d        // prints 50.

If the situation calls for an object, then I would say it should be turned into an object. There's nothing wrong with using objects that way (I do it myself), in fact I find it to be very robust.

This is a side question that's a little off topic but what program is that speed test run in? Sorry if its off topic.

Dream Seeker has a profiling tool. Right click on the title bar of Dream Seeker, and click on server->Profile...
