Writing a program...

[skittles12]

Hey guys. First of all, hi! Just joined.

Ok so my problem. I'm writing a program, and having some trouble. It's math related, and I suck at maths.

I have a variable named Time and it equals 5000, a variable named Transition, and a variable named Duration which in this case equals lets say 7000.

When Time is 5000, I want Transition to equal 255. And once Time equals 7000, or Duration, I want Transition to equal zero. I've added a lot of crap into the program but I'm having trouble implementing this. It's just the simple percentage math thingy isn't it? I tried using it but seems to return an incorrect result...

Thanks in advance =)

You'll have to be more specific. Does Transition always start at 255? Does it always run to zero over 2000, or perhaps over whatever is assigned to Transition? Two or three specific examples should answer all such questions.
