Drop table

[Arathor]

Hey Guys

Im looking for an item drop system that allows you to create a loot table for summoned units and sets the chance of items dropping. Couldn't find a system like that here that doesn't require JPNG. I don't have very much knowledge about hashtable, but i imaigne that such a system would be running on hashtables. Anyone have any sugestions?

Create an Item-Type Variable Array, when the map starts set variable arrays to whatever items you want.

Example from my own map.

• Items
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Items[1] = Life Crystal
    • Set Items[2] = Long Range Rifle
    • Set Items[3] = Blight Skull
    • Set Items[4] = Captured Mirror Image
    • Set Items[5] = Contained Disease Cloud
    • Set Items[6] = Fire
    • Set Items[7] = Flamethrower
    • Set Items[8] = Magi Staff
    • Set Items[9] = Pulse Rifle
    • Set Items[10] = Sheeps Spellbook

Make an integer variable for drop chance and another for deciding what item to drop.

• Item Drops
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Water Elemental (Level 1)
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Water Elemental (Level 2)
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Water Elemental (Level 3)
  • Actions
    • Set DropChance[1] = (Random integer number between 1 and 100)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • DropChance[1] Less than or equal to 10
      • Then - Actions
        • Set RandomItem = (Random integer number between 1 and 10)
        • Item - Create Items[RandomItem] at (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Else - Actions

The above triggers makes it so whenever a water elemental dies it has a 10% chance to drop a random item

And their you have it No JNGP or hashtables

Same with GenoHacker's solution.

In addition, if you want a dying unit suppose to be a summoned unit (Which created through abilities.), you should add this condition.

• ((Dying unit) is Summoned) Equal to True

If you limit to non JNGP, then dont expect nice things.
