problem getting 8 digit grids in BIS_fnc_gridToPos

[Tiberius_161 41]

Is there a way to get 8 digit grids working with BIS_fnc_gridToPos?

Right now I have a script snippet that works with 6 digits, but as soon I convert it to 8 digit  or more is gives me very strange results.

I need to 8/10 digit grids as I want to apply it in a fire support script.  

//OBJ1 is a gamelogic on the player's position;
//OBJ2 is a gamelogic that is placed on the grid position;
//The hint is the desired product;

_pos = ((["071125"] call BIS_fnc_gridToPos) param [0,[]]); 
_pos set [2,0];
OBJ2 setpos _pos;

hint format ["%1, %2, %3", (OBJ1 distance OBJ2), (OBJ1 getdir OBJ2), (round((getPosASL OBJ2) select 2))];

Any advice is appreciated.

From grid to pos for 10, 8 and 6 digits:

GOM_fnc_gridToPos = {
	params ["_grid"];
	_count = count _grid;
	_banana = _count / 2;
	_multis = [1,10,100];
	_counts = [10,8,6];
	_multi = _multis select (_counts find _count);
	_posX = (parseNumber (_grid select [0,_banana])) * _multi;
	_posY = (parseNumber (_grid select [_banana,_banana + _banana])) * _multi;
	[_posX,_posY,0]
};

Pos to grid:

GOM_fnc_posToGrid = {
	params ["_pos",["_gridSize",6,[0]]];
	_divisors = [100,10,1];
	_gridSizes = [6,8,10];
	_divisor = _divisors select (_gridSizes find _gridSize);
	_gridResolution = _gridSize / 2;
	_pos params ["_posX","_posY"];
	_posX = str round floor (_posX / _divisor);
	_posY = str round floor (_posY / _divisor);
	while {count _posX < _gridResolution} do {
		_posX = "0" + _posX;
	};

	while {count _posY < _gridResolution} do {
		_posY = "0" + _posY;
	};
_posX + _posY
};

Usage:

_grid = [getPosATL player,10] call GOM_fnc_posToGrid;
systemchat str _grid; //prints something like 0843103263

You can easily add finer granularity if needed.

Thnx for the help! 

 

What is the usage for GOM_fnc_gridToPos? 

 

 

Right now I pasted the whole thing in the debug dialog in the editor and tried it, but I have not succesfully got it going yet.

I tried: 

_pos = ["071250"] call GOM_fnc_gridToPos;

But it gives me an error in the 'gridto#pos'.

Returns the following just fine:

[7100,25000,0]
