No! There is no number.
Don't think about numbers. :)
Both sides are text in your comparison.

Always! Because both sides are text.
Two text strings. No numbers.
LC compare
Hello Curry,
I’m still puzzled. So you are saying that if the first char of the string is a
number then it uses the number but if the first char is not a number then it
uses the ascii value of the first char? It seems like there is more to it than
that. Obviously we wouldn’t expect“9foo”

Because you are NOT comparing numbers.
You are comparing (like sorting) text.
That usually means: the FIRST CHAR of each string.
(The ASCII/ANSI/etc values of those chars.)

That's the tricky thing about dotted versions;
easy to forget and set up a text comparison:
"9" > "5"
"1" < "5"
Once you have two dots, or an rc/dp, it's a string.
They seem to compare perfect
I have not been modding tmc2 but I do still use some of those slick objects. (I
have modded a few of the gauges in Scott's older tmgauges project. :- )
