Hi! First: Sry for my english.

Me and my developer are doing some new special moves.
I've do ALL, the script works but I need a help in the random.

I want to hit someting when I have 100 fencing and do a random of 10 [10% chance] and i want to change everytime i need. It's in a IF.

I have this and I should work
IF ((<FENCING> =100.0) && (RAND(10)=1)

RAND(10)=1 IS RLY 10%?
RAND(2)=1 IS 50%?

It's okay the IF? what do you exchange in?
what function I can use for RANDOM's?

rly thanks ^_^

Comparisons for equality require two equal signs.

IF ((<FENCING> == 100.0) && (<EVAL RAND(10)> == 1)

The rightmost statement can be written in this way : (<R(10)> == 1)
So you can skip to write "eval" before random everytime!

That's sure? I can use 1 only and works too ^_^ in all my scripts.
A friend that's studing programation tells me that and works fine because Sphere it's a old system... o.o
thanks ^_ ^

Thanks darksun! i'll try the R(10) ^_^

Regarding the single versus double equal sign... If you don't want to follow my advice and script properly then feel free to ignore my advice. Following the advice of people who do not know sphere programming seems foolish.

R(10) produces a random number between 0 and 10 does it not? In which case a single match is more like 9%... to be certain you can do <R1,10>

Yeah, most of the time. Point is its not a habit you want to get in to.

Rand(10) can be 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Rand(2) can be 0 1 2

<R10> = Rand(10)
But
<R1,10> can be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

What is the EVAL used for?

Ok Extreme, Rand(9) = 1 it's 10% chance, rly? Tongue

Thanks to all! ; Big Grin

EVAL works to make strings become numbers, calculations etc...
Like this:

Code:

LOCAL.EXP += <EVAL (<FAME>*10)/100> // It will ADD 10% of the FAME to LOCAL.EXP

And used to do some operations like the RAND(X)
If you try

Code:

IF RAND(10) == 1 // Wrong, will not work.

or

Code:

IF STRLEN(<SRC.NAME>) // Wrong, will not work too.

The right usage is <EVAL RAND(10)> and <EVAL STRLEN(<SRC.NAME>)>
You should use <R1,10> instead <EVAL RAND(9)>

Edit: use <R1,10> == 1 // 10%
