Minimum and Maximum for <<numberbox>>

[SjoerdHekking]

Is your feature request related to a problem? I have witnessed roughly 5~ authors having trouble with the numberbox macro, for they would love to have a minimum and maximum, to prevent players from entering ridiculous numbers. So a limiter would be nice.

Describe the solution you'd like. I want to show you the following example of how I "bypassed" the traditional way:

Hereby the code:

<<script>>
    $(`<span />`)
        .wiki(`<<numberbox "$Age" 1>>`)
        .find("input").attr({
            "min": 1,
            "max": 99
        }).appendTo(this.output);
    // change $age to your variable
    // change "min" 1 to your minimum
    // change "max" 99 to your maximum
<</script>>

<<done>>
    <<script>>
        document.getElementById("numberbox-age").addEventListener("change", function() {
            let number = Number(this.value);
            if (number < 1) this.value = 1;
            if (number > 99) this.value = 99;
        });
        // change 'numberbox-age' to 'numberbox-nameofyourvariable'
        // change both 1 to your minimum
        // change both 99 to your maximum
    <</script>>
<</done>>

Additional context. Maybe the macro could work like this (which makes it rather lengthy):

<<numberbox "$answertolife" 42 1 100 "Truth" autofocus>> A numberbox to change the variable answertolife starting at 42, with a minimum of 1, with a maximum of 100, forwarding to the passage 'Truth' and autofocus.

FYI, I believe the <<numberpool>> addon macro set does this.

FYI, I believe the <<numberpool>> addon macro set does this.

I see what you mean, in that case, why isn't the macro a default one, and rather an add-on? If it stays an add-on, could there be a little note, like: "If you are looking for a way to have a minimum and maximum, use the <<numberpool>>"
