Variable seing number as a string of text and not value.
So I've been messing with twine the past couple of days, fun thing to learn I must say.
But horribly annoying when it comes to troubleshooting what's gone wrong, now a quick explenation of what I've done should be in order. I've made two variables $Stamina and $Magic, both these values are increased and decreased by 1 each click the player does through a small code in the sidebar.
This piece of code runs everytime you click a passage as a way to make progress with each click, this part works fine.
But I made a 'debug' tool to help manage things and with that I made it so that it's possible to change Magic and Stamina with a </span> & <<Textbox>> command
Basically I can use it to increase/decrease both the the stats $Stam and $Magic, however, after doing so the very first command I showed you, the one that runs in the sidebar partially stops working.
I'm slowly going crazy trying to figure out why += doesn't work but the -= works just fine. I desperatly need pointers.
Just to add a bit more information, I am using Twine 2 w/ SugarCube 1.0.26.

<<if $Options is 1>> /* Time, Magic and Stamina will not increase */
<<else>>
<<set $Time += 1; $Stam -= 1; $Magic += 1>>
<</if>> /* Options if end */

<<if $Statmod is 0>> /* if Statmod */
<span id="STATMODSTAM">
<<click "Change Stamina">>
<<replace "#STATMODSTAM">> <<textbox "$Stam" "10" "Settings">> <</replace>>
<</click>>
</span>

<<click "Change Magic">>
<<replace "#STATMODSTAM">> <<textbox "$Magic" "10" "Settings">> <</replace>>

<span id="STATMODSandL">
<<click "Change Both">>
<<replace "#STATMODSandL">> <<textbox "$SandL" "10" "Settings">> <</replace>>
<</click>>
</span>
<<if $SandL gt 0>> <<set $Libido to $SandL; $Stam to $SandL; $SandL to 0>> <</if>>
<<endif>> /* if Statmod END */

This one stops adding 1 as a value to the variable, instead adds "1" as a text string to the variable $Magic. Making the number 10 become 101 and for each passage I click, it adds more becoming 1011, 10111 and so fourth.<<set $Magic += 1>>
