GSAVE behaves differently with int and float arrays

Root / SmileBASIC Bug Reports / [.]

12Me21Created:
GSAVE saves signed 32 bit values in integer arrays, but UNSIGNED 32 bit when a float array is used.

hmmmm somebody didnt cast a type correctly or something always type your vars properly kids.

Technically speaking, I don't think GSAVE behaves differently per se, I think it just always writes the unsigned values, which become signed due to overflow with int arrays.
