Input float for each exterior
CS2 normalises float across a trade-up: each input’s float becomes a 0–1 position inside its own range, those are averaged, and the average is applied to Galil AR | Sandstorm’s range of 0.10–0.60. To land a given exterior, your ten inputs must average the normalised float below.
| Target exterior | Output float | Required avg. input float |
|---|---|---|
| Factory New | — | not reachable |
| Minimal Wear | 0.1250 | 0.0500 |
| Field-Tested | 0.2650 | 0.3300 |

| Battle-Scarred | 0.5250 | 0.8500 |
