Random Events?

Hi, I was wondering how you make random events. If you could post the script that would be great Big Grin

RE: Random Events?

Random events are easy.

Example:
void OnStart()
{
     AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_1", "Func01", true, 1);
}
void Func01(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
     int x = RandInt(1, 3);
     if (x == 1)
     {
          [Whatever happens if the number it picked is 1 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
          return;
     }
     if (x == 2)
     {
          [Whatever happens if the number it picked is 2 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
          return;
     }
     if (x == 3)
     {
          [Whatever happens if the number it picked is 3 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
          return;
     }
}

}

Ahh thanks but one more thing. Would it mess up the script if i redo it so it looks like this?:

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_1", "Func01", true, 1);
}

void Func01(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
int x = RandInt(1, 3);
if (x == 1)
{
[Whatever happens if the number it picked is 1 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
return;
}
if (x == 2)
{
[Whatever happens if the number it picked is 2 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
return;
}
if (x == 3)
{
[Whatever happens if the number it picked is 3 (1 is least, 3 is greatest)]
return;
}
}

RE: Random Events?

What's the difference? That you removed the tab layout? If so then no that will not break it, but it is harder to read.

RE: Random Events?

If it doesn't work ingame, did you:

-Make sure the ScriptArea matches up with the name of it in the script?

-Make sure you filled out all the scenarios?

-Make sure the scenarios will actually be noticable?

If you checked it already, then it is best to repost your script with the scenarios you added.

Note: Please use [cod*e] and [/cod*e] (Without asterisks) between your code to make it look neater. Smile
