BOUNTY SYSTEM

What is a Bounty System?
A bounty system occurs when a unit dies and it drops an item. The item is specifically given. Percentage of course.

How do I do this?
If you read this tutorial by me. You'll know all about it

What do I need to do first?
Follow this steps:


VARIABLES
Create an Item Variable Array - Specify what they will drop.
Create an Integer Array - Specify the creep level to determine item.


Easy Triggers:

• InitializeItemBountySystem
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Item[1] = Mask of Death
    • Set Item[2] = Kelen's Dagger of Escape
    • Set Item[3] = Crown of Kings +5
    • -------- What the items are. --------
    • Set Creep_Level[1] = 2
    • Set Creep_Level[2] = 3
    • Set Creep_Level[3] = 6
    • -------- Creep level --------

Pretty easy right?

That was easy, what will I do next?

Just listen, be patient

THE ITEM DROP

The triggers here are simple. If a unit dies, it will check what level the creep is and it drops the item given at the variable. We too make it drop in a certain rate.

For this part, I used a level 2, 3, and 6 creep.

For level 2, the drop rate is 60%
For level 3, the drop rate is 30%
For level 6, the drop rate is 15%

• If - Conditions
  • (Level of (Dying unit)) Equal to Creep_Level[1]
  • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 60

The dying unit is specifies as the variable given earlier on...
That's the percentage drop rate. Find that in Conditions, Integer Comparison, Math - Random Number.

• Then - Actions
  • Item - Create Item[1] at (Position of (Dying unit))

That's the item type that is given...

Do that to all the levels of the creeps you want..

Final Look:

• Bounty System
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of (Dying unit)) Equal to Creep_Level[1]
        • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 60
      • Then - Actions
        • Item - Create Item[1] at (Position of (Dying unit))
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 30
            • (Level of (Dying unit)) Equal to Creep_Level[2]
          • Then - Actions
            • Item - Create Item[2] at (Position of (Dying unit))
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 15
                • (Level of (Dying unit)) Equal to Creep_Level[3]
              • Then - Actions
                • Item - Create Item[3] at (Position of (Dying unit))
              • Else - Actions
                • Do nothing

Done! Hope you learned something!

This is rather too restrictive - it only allows for one drop type per creep type. The system should at least support a table per creep type (level).

I suggest you look into Itempools, by the way. They're rather useful for this sort of thing (though they are Jass stuff, a few custom script actions can't hurt).

I tested that and it worked... I used a troll lvl2 lvl3, lvl6 and they drop items .

it only allows for one drop type per creep type.

So drop a Permanent thing or... something like that..

whatr if you were to set multiple items to one EXAMPLE Set item 1 mask of death......... set item 1 robe of the magi........... set item 1 gauntlets of strength would that give it a chance to drop multiple items at the same percentage?

>set item 1 gauntlets of strength would that give it a chance to drop multiple items at the same percentage?
AS long as Random integer is there I think. =)

@Tutorial:
Weird.

You will probably also want to eliminate the leaks in your code. I see a few there.
And I think you could really expand on this subject and go beyond what you have here, possibly with some optimization as well....

I was bored and had nothing to do.. So.. T_T, sorry. X((

 

[Ghan_04]

Well, I think you could go somewhere with this tutorial, it just needs some more added to it.
It just isn't up to par right at the moment.

ty

thx! you gave me a basic idea for it (added variables for every item lvl) now i can have them drop items according to their level ^_^
