How do you divide using triggers? I know you have to subtract both of the death counters using binary count offs or something like that, but I don't get it.

I've seen this, but I would like to see it in trigger form not in paragraph form.

Ridiculous simplification

If deaths of Y are at least 4
Then add 1 for X
& subtract 4 for Y
(In this case we are dividing by 4) So if Y was 16, it would put the answer in X, which is 4.
There are many forms depending on what you're looking for. Note that this puts the remainder in Y.

If you want to Divide Y/X for instance instead of a known value, then it gets more complicated. I don't want to explain this though unless you actually need it (Bit lazy)

This map is a simple calculation map:

This one has instant calculation (assuming you're doing X/Y):

By whipped out I mean that he produced them like a magician produces a rabbit out of a hat.

The magician doesn't birth the rabbit :)

In other words, there's no easy way to do it, you have to basically brute-force in any divisor you need.

O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- below the minimap should be a thing that says "Overlay Settings" with a little + button in the corner, press the + to expand it, uncheck Use Defaults, then change "Tile Overlay" to "Height"
