Summary
I have a simple function ToString(Val:logic) : string = if (Val?). "true" else "false" that I’d like to use to cast a logic value to a string (since Verse doesn’t do it by itself), but the compiler throws the following error:
“The function (/theuser@fortnite.com/TheProject:)ToString(:logic) in package TheProject is ambiguous with this definition:
function (/Verse.org/Verse:)ToString(:char) in package Verse(3532)”
I was able to make a similar function that received an enum and it didn’t complain.
I didn’t find a ToString(:[]char) function in the Verse.digest file, although I found the same named function for a single char, string, int or float value.
The reason I want this to work is that I want to be able to write Print("Value is {LogicVar}"), as it did work with the enum value, and because writing Print("Value is {LogicVar.ToString()}") seems out of pattern and unnecessary long (if we account that the autocomplete for Verse in VSCode doesn’t work at all)

Verse
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a global function like this:
ToString(Val:logic) : string = if (Val?). "true" else "false" - Wait for the compiler to evaluate the code, or go to UEFN and hit Verse > Build Verse Code (Ctrl+Shift+B)
Expected Result
The compiler will identify that the type of the parameter is logic and not []char, and will not throw any errors.
Observed Result
The compiler throws an error.
