after i bought an store in my game the money goes on an number and not on dollar??

in my game i have stores but when i buy 1 store the money goes from $2.5 to 0 so there is not an $ at the beginning of the number does anyone know why and how??

this is my script



using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class script : MonoBehaviour
{
float BaseStoreCost;
float CurrentBalance;
float BaseStoreProfit;


int StoreCount;
public Text StoreCountText;
public Text CurrentBalancetext;

float StoreTimer = 1f;
float currentTimer = 0;
bool StartTimer;

// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
StoreCount = 0;
CurrentBalance = 2.50f;
BaseStoreCost = 2.50f;
BaseStoreProfit = 0.50f;
CurrentBalancetext.text = CurrentBalance.ToString("C2");
StartTimer = false;
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{ if (StartTimer)
{
currentTimer += Time.deltaTime;
if (currentTimer > StoreTimer)

{



{
StartTimer = false;
currentTimer = 0f;
CurrentBalance += BaseStoreProfit * StoreCount;
CurrentBalancetext.text = CurrentBalance.ToString("C2");
}

}
}
}

public void BuyStoreOnClick()
{
if (BaseStoreCost > CurrentBalance)
return;
StoreCount = StoreCount + 1;
Debug.Log(StoreCount);
StoreCountText.text = StoreCount.ToString();
CurrentBalance = CurrentBalance - BaseStoreCost;
Debug.Log(CurrentBalance);
CurrentBalancetext.text = CurrentBalance.ToString();
}


public void StoreOnClick()
{

Debug.Log("clicked the store");
if (!StartTimer)
StartTimer = true;


}


}

 

In your Start function, you set the value of

CurrentBalancetext.text

to

CurrentBalance.ToString("C2")

but later in your code (in the BuyStoreOnClick function) you are setting the text to

CurrentBalance.ToString();

The "C2" passed to the ToString function in the Start specifies how it should be formatted. In your case, "C2" makes it a Currency format with two decimal digits (C for currency, 2 for precision)

So, in BuyStoreOnClick, just change

CurrentBalancetext.text = CurrentBalance.ToString();

to

CurrentBalancetext.text = CurrentBalance.ToString("C2");

For more information on formats: Standard Numeric Format Strings

 

omg i dindt see that thank you <3
