Most places that require you to enter a value (when making Effects, most commonly) do so through the use of Expressions. These can be made up of regular numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, in addition to the functions and variables listed below.

Functions

function example returns explanation/usage
abs(x) abs(-5) 5 The absolute value of the input value
atan2(x, y) atan2(1, 1)*180/3.14 45.02 atan2 of the given x, y position. Good for angles!
boolean(x) boolean(5) 1 Returns 0 if the given expression evaluates to 0, 1 otherwise
ceil(x) ceil(2.7) 3 Rounds up
floor(x) floor(2.7) 2 Rounds down
round(x) round(2.7) 3 Rounds to nearest
max(x, y, z...) max(2, 3, 8, 6) 8 Returns the max of any number of parameters
min(x, y, z...) min(2, 3, 8, 6) 2 Returns the min of any number of parameters
pow(x, e) pow(2, 3) 8 Returns the first parameter to the power of the second parameter
sqrt(x) sqrt(16) 4 Returns the square root
sin(x) sin(3.14/2) 1
cos(x) cos(3.14/2) 0
sign(x) sign(5) 1 Returns the signum; zero if the argument is zero, 1 if the argument is greater than zero, -1 if the argument is less than zero.
smoothstep(x) smoothstep(0.75) 0.84 Given a number between 0 and 1, returns that number put into the smoothstep function (x*x*(3-2*x))
smootherstep(x) smootherstep(0.75) 0.89 Given a number between 0 and 1, returns that number put into the smootherstep function (x*x*x*(10+x*(6*x-15)))
isMatch(x, y, z...) isMatch(5+2, 7) 1 Returns 1 if all given parameters equal the same value, 0 otherwise.
length(x, y, [z]) length(5, 5) 7.071 Returns the length (magnitude) of a given Vector2 or Vector3
lerp(a, b, t) lerp(0, 100, 0.8) 80 Linearly interpolates between a and b by t (where t is clamped to 0 - 1), where t=0 returns a, t=1 returns b, and t=0.5 returns a value 50% of the way from a to b, etc.
greaterThan(a, b) greaterThan(5, 7) 0 Returns 1 if a is greater than b, 0 otherwise
lessThan(a, b) lessThan(5, 7) 1 Returns 1 if a is less than b, 0 otherwise

Variables

variable example returns explanation/usage
EVENT_ROLL A number between 1 and 100 Used in choice target tests, in the Chose Outcome, generally seen together with roll_one, roll_two, roll_three, etc. expressions
IS_FLANKING 1 if flanking, 0 otherwise If this event contains attack info (e.g. a DAMAGE_ROLL, DAMAGE_ROLL_INCOMING, DAMAGE_ROLL_AFTER_ARMOR), returns whether or not the attack is flanking.
THIS_ASPECT The integer value of this event's parent aspect If this event has a parent aspect, returns the value of that aspect.
TOWN_POPULATION_LIMIT The population limit for all towns (200)
RECRUIT_COST_ADJUSTMENT -1 if company size < 3, 0 if >= 3, 1 if >= 6, 2 if >= 8, 3 if >= 10 Adjustment for recruit cost based on company size. This is used to make recruits cheaper if you have fewer of them, and more expensive if you have more.
RECRUIT_ENCOUNTER_SCORE_OFFSET If chapter 1, returns 0.5 if company size=3, 2 if size=2, 4 if size=1. If chapter > 1, returns 0.5 if company size=4, 2 if size=3, 4 if size=2, 9 if size=1. Returns 0 otherwise. An offset for recruit encounters that makes it so the encounter is more likely to happen if you have a smaller company. This is used in events that give you recruits.
isDefender isDefender.hero 1 if the given role is the current defender of an AttackRoll Outcome, 0 otherwise Generally used if you want different damage for one enemy in an attack than for others. (See how fireleash works, dealing half damage to defenders that aren't on the target tile)
RESOURCE RESOURCE.legacyPoints The amount of the given resource Can be used to find the amount of any resource: legacyPoints, heartwoods, hides, ingots, fabrics, and spellthreads
COUNT COUNT.target How many matches were made for the given target Often used in the effect.info.aiPriority field to make give AOE attacks higher priority if they hit more targets. Also used in the Damage Outcome for multi-target abilities, to divide stunt chance among the targets.
EXISTS EXISTS.target 1 if at least one match was made for the given target, 0 otherwise
ASPECT_PARAM0 self.ASPECT_PARAM0.extraDamageAspect The value of the nth parameter Tries to get a parameter value from an aspect on a given role. This can be done for up to a 9th parameter (ASPECT_PARAM0, ASPECT_PARAM1, etc.)
ITEM_CATEGORY weapon.ITEM_CATEGORY.bow 1 if the given item is of the given category (bow, sword, spear, etc), 0 otherwise
WEAPON_TIER WEAPON_TIER.weapon The tier of the given weapon, or -1 if there isn't one or it isn't a weapon

YEAR YEAR The current year
DAY_OF_MONTH DAY_OF_MONTH day of the current season
distanceTo target.distanceTo.targetTile In a mission, the distance between two roles (can be entities or tiles) Used to calculate the extra damage dealt from knockback attacks, and certain other edge cases like making sure the Thrixl Thrusk is still in range to attack again after its first attack (e.g. if the defender has Riposte and a knockback weapon)
