Trying to calculate a text field, but getting NaN and "[object Field]0"

[mikaelw95148188]

Hello i have a two dropdown fields, two text fields with values, and a text field with a custom calculation script.

I have this in the text field:

var class1 = this.getField("Class1");
var class2 = this.getField("Class2");
var level1 = this.getField("Level1");
var level2 = this.getField("Level2");

if ((class1.value==="Bard")||(class1.value==="Cleric")||(class1.value==="Druid")||(class1.value==="Sorcerer")||(class1.value==="Wizard"))
    {
    var a = level1;
    if ((class2.value==="Bard")||(class2.value==="Cleric")||(class2.value==="Druid")||(class2.value==="Sorcerer")||(class2.value==="Wizard")) {var b = level2;}
    else if ((class2.value==="Paladin")||(class2.value==="Ranger")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 2);}
    else if (class2.value==="Artificer") {var b = Math.ceil(level2 / 2);}
    else if ((class2.value==="Fighter")||(class2.value==="Rogue")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 3);}
    else{var b = 0;}
    var spellCasterLevel = a + b;
    event.value = spellCasterLevel;
    }
else if ((class1.value==="Paladin")||(class1.value==="Ranger"))
    {
    var a = Math.floor(level1 / 2);
    if ((class2.value==="Bard")||(class2.value==="Cleric")||(class2.value==="Druid")||(class2.value==="Sorcerer")||(class2.value==="Wizard")) {var b = level2;}
    else if ((class2.value==="Paladin")||(class2.value==="Ranger")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 2);}
    else if (class2.value==="Artificer") {var b = Math.ceil(level2 / 2);}
    else if ((class2.value==="Fighter")||(class2.value==="Rogue")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 3);}
    else{var b = 0;}
    var spellCasterLevel = a + b;
    event.value = spellCasterLevel;
    }
else if (class1.value==="Artificer")
    {
    var a = Math.ceil(level1 / 2);
    if ((class2.value==="Bard")||(class2.value==="Cleric")||(class2.value==="Druid")||(class2.value==="Sorcerer")||(class2.value==="Wizard")) {var b = level2;}
    else if ((class2.value==="Paladin")||(class2.value==="Ranger")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 2);}
    else if (class2.value==="Artificer") {var b = Math.ceil(level2 / 2);}
    else if ((class2.value==="Fighter")||(class2.value==="Rogue")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 3);}
    else {var b = 0;}
    var spellCasterLevel = a + b;
    event.value = spellCasterLevel;
    }
else if ((class1.value==="Fighter")||(class1.value==="Rogue"))
    {
    var a = Math.floor(level1 / 3);
    if ((class2.value==="Bard")||(class2.value==="Cleric")||(class2.value==="Druid")||(class2.value==="Sorcerer")||(class2.value==="Wizard")) {var b = level2;}
    else if ((class2.value==="Paladin")||(class2.value==="Ranger")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 2);}
    else if (class2.value==="Artificer") {var b = Math.ceil(level2 / 2);}
    else if ((class2.value==="Fighter")||(class2.value==="Rogue")) {var b = Math.floor(level2 / 3);}
    else {var b = 0;}
    var spellCasterLevel = a + b;
    event.value = spellCasterLevel;
    }
else
    {
    var spellCasterLevel = 0;
    event.value = spellCasterLevel;
    }

But when I change the value of the first dropdown field (Class1) I get either "NaN", "[object Field]0", or "0". The last one is only if I leave the field empty.

What is going wrong?

level1 and level2 are field objects.

To use the values of the fields you must use e.g. level1.value

[mikaelw95148188]

No, "level1" and "level2" are variables defined at the start of the code. "Level1" and "Level2" are the fields.

And since I havn't implemented the levels in the code yet it can't be a issue. The only fields that are used in the code are "Class1" and "Class2" and the variables "class1" and "class2".

[mikaelw95148188]

And the way I'm defining the variables "class1", "class2", "level1", and "level2" is used in many other places in the document and it works perfectly.

[mikaelw95148188]

Sorry I'm tired... I am using the "level1" and "level2" variables in the code 😛 But I still don't think that they are the problem since they are working in other places.

No, it's not. You're using them incorrectly. For example, here:

Math.floor(level2 / 2);

It should be:

Math.floor(level2.value / 2);
