eg: 20-30 = -10.

The developers don't intend this for a code function "XYZ" which use this result. Their default values from the scene.dat for this function allways delivers a positive result and perhaps the return value of function "XYZ" is used for further calculations in other areas of the game engine. It's a chain, where a false value is now moving through the code and results in other not so indended values.

The values in the scene.dat are per default designed as they are, and allows only changes in narrow boundaries without anomalies.

HI Seeadler,
Thank you for the explanation, yesterday I found out a way to leave the -1 value out of the scene.dat and still get good results, so maybe this will help the stripes (no promise!) so now I know what to watch out for when editing the scene.dat.

BTW hows the different clouds injectioncode project going? I saw you nice screenshot in the EE5 thread.
