Centerprinting Amor Value

wtf?
centerprint reads the tempstring instantly. its not meant to buffer it. there's no possibility for it to be buffered and therefore cannot get overwritten with the ftos(self.health) elsewhere.

also, strcat has a set of 16 temp strings in many engines, so using strcat as a workaround only delays the bug until the mod gets big enough to rotate those tempstrings enough (say 16 players).

yes, i've run into this problem before.
you don't notice it right away because normally you're outputting to the console via dprints or whatever, so they are done incrementally, but if you try access multiple ftos() at the same time, the pointer to the string will only be the last one you called.

That's expected behaviour - the PF_ftos builtin in stock ID Quake has a single temp buffer to write to (pr_string_temp) so the second ftos will overwrite the result of the first.
