[Trigger] Random picker doesn't work

Why does it always play the same one?

 

[Chaosy]

That's extremely buggy and inefficient.

Firstly, store the random number in a variable instead of using it 6 times.
Secondly, use a loop instead of 6 if blocks. After that, we can look at it again.

 

[dontsnoozeondalose]

Should I use an Integer A loop?

 

[Chaosy]

Indeed.

 

[dontsnoozeondalose]

I don't know what I'm doing T_T

• Set Real = (Random real number between 1.00 and 10.00)

What do I do next?

I'm so confused I'm stuck

I've only used if conditions so far. I don't know hwo to make the loop work

• Actions
  • Set chance[1] = 50.00
  • Set chance[2] = 60.00
  • Set chance[3] = 70.00
  • Set chance[4] = 80.00
  • Set chance[5] = 90.00
  • Set triggers[1] = trigger 1
  • Set triggers[2] = trigger 2
  • Set triggers[3] = trigger 3
  • Set triggers[4] = trigger 4
  • Set triggers[5] = trigger 5
  • trigger X are the ones you try to run. This is done at initalization

• Actions
  • Set rng = (Random real number between 1.00 and 100.00)
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • rng Greater than or equal to chance[(Integer A)]
        • Then - Actions
          • Trigger - Run triggers[(Integer A)] (ignoring conditions)
        • Else - Actions

@Iceman and other perfectionists
And NO I will not change away from integer a/b. No need for you to bother Iceman.

What kind of variable is chance?

THANK YOU

 

[nedio95]

It is "Real"

• Actions
  • Set rng = (Random real number between 1.00 and 100.00)
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • rng Greater than or equal to chance[(Integer A)]
        • Then - Actions
          • Trigger - Run triggers[(Integer A)] (ignoring conditions)
          • >>>>> Here should be something like "Skip remaining actions" <<<<<
        • Else - Actions

It does not. If you are testing it in the editor you forgot to disabled fixed seed.

The mathematics is possibly incorrect. I recommend reading up about probability theory as it may be a lot more complicated than you currently think. Each condition is dependant on the previous condition which greatly alters the probability of one outcome occurring. As such your nice easy numbers you have chosen will result in very strange probabilities of occurrence. Specifically "NEWLadyMacbeth 4 Lookup" has less than a 50% chance of occurring.

..."NEWLadyMacbeth 4 Lookup" has less than a 50% chance of occurring.

A lot less than 50... like ~3...

 

[dontsnoozeondalose]

Thanks for the help guys.

But it's now playing all the cinematics at once. I did everything you guys said. What do I do?

 

[Chaosy]

show us the new triggers.

 

[blancfaye7]

It does not. If you are testing it in the editor you forgot to disabled fixed seed.

You should check this one out. It's under Preferences.
This option makes random generation fixed if you are testing in editor.

Check the trigger in this post again. I believe the reason is because you did not do that.

If you do not have the "Skip remaining actions" the trigger will check for EVERY cinematic. If you have it, it will stop if it finds a valid one.
