What am I doing wrong?

There are two log functions

One takes a string and sends it to the log output (you want this) and the other function calculates the logarithmic result of a value (integer or float) that is passed to it.


Your last line should be:
Log(str(testRecord.spriteScene)) to force the value to be sent to the log and not find the logarithm of it.

HA HA! Are you serious? OMG.... Thank You, I THOUGHT I WAS GOING CRAZY

I only put the log() function to test if the result of a series of functions came out ok! Should have just ploughed on and not bothered...but anyways I have learnt something!

No problem. Its a questionable idea to have two functions that do different things with the exact same name - so its not suprising this can happen really.
