I think that means that you have an infinate amount of money. I am not absolutley sure though, check by trying to buy everything. If your money goes down, or you aren't allowed to buy anything then you can correctly assume that I was wrong.

but I already bought everything and I didn't have that much money one day 1500 next day nan nan

NaN = Not a Number.

It's a glitch. Something bad happened with math in the code.

[thebigguyz]

perhaps it is a good thing. If it's not a number than you can't run out like unicycler said. I don't know how much that would help you since you bought everything but meh *shrugs*

It very well seems to be a glitch; you probably hit standard wall. Most games have a numerical limit after which they cannot climb. Usually it's 16, 32, 64; numbers to follow of course but there are always numerical limits (to most games anyway).

but I only had 1500 dollars

[Sperry]

If you only had $1500 and then that; then it's a glitch; not the wall; walls are very high.

That seems to happen when I run a script. Glitch.

Flash would switch to Infinity, not NaN when it reached the maximum number. The number is quite large too... (30-something digits).

[b.i.g.]

it probably means infity because thats what it says when you get infinity

Isn't Infinity is notated as Inf in flash? NaN is normally returned when you try to do math operations like "1 + Apple" or so. But then again, it's been a while since I did anything with actionscript.

i'm guessing a script that's supposed to change money somehow managed to screw up. It happened once to me when I set an explosion to happen every frame with an insanely high strength.

[theryman]

When you enter the actionscript code

"explode(getXbuddy(),getYbuddy(),10)"

you get NaN.NaN money. Not sure, but i think it is an infinite amount.

[The Brown Cow]

NaN seems to give you unlimited money.

That's NaN dollars and NaN cents, hence the period.


Infinity is called "Infinity" in Flash. Dark's right, something messes up in the part where money is added for interaction.
