Tic-80: trace() is useless for truth/false values

[darkhog]

Try the following code:

trace(2+2==4)

It will return always nil instead of true/false which makes trace() useless for debugging conditions. It will return nil in the case that conditional would result in false as well such as this: trace(3-3==math.sqrt(math.pi))

[Crutiatix]

Use the function tostring:

trace(tostring(2+2==4))

But yes, it could be a regular behavior of the trace function same as in the standard lua print function.

[trelemar]

trace(tostring(2+2==4))

Ahh, @Crutiatix beat me to it.
