Return Values:
This function does not return any specific values.

new string[4]; new iValue = 250; valstr(string,iValue); // string is now "250"
// valstr fix by Slice
stock FIX_valstr(dest[], value, bool:pack = false)
{
// format can't handle cellmin properly
static const cellmin_value[] = !"-2147483648";
if (value == cellmin)
pack && strpack(dest, cellmin_value, 12) || strunpack(dest, cellmin_value, 12);
else
format(dest, 12, "%d", value), pack && strpack(dest, dest, 12);
