I've posted something like this on 3 forums and searched all over the web but i can't find a good way to make multiple drops. When you go into database there's ONE treasure spot. Can i have a script or a link anyone? Or can someone make a demo? So i just want let's say a 50% chance of getting a sword and a 40% chance of getting a shield.

And don't say to do the thing where you make two troops, i have a action battle system.

~Thanks~Luke~

Have you tried Tons of Add-ons over at Chaos Project?

There's a multi-drop script in there somewhere, as well as a bunch of other nifty scripts.

[RATED-RKOFRANKLIN]

I never heard of that before. It's an interesting idea.

[-Luke-]

That script you gave me the link to was confusing Well i'm not good at knowing how to place them and how to use scripts..If anyone could either give me a script with easy to under stand of step-by-step, or they could make a demo =]

~Thanks~Luke~

[RATED-RKOFRANKLIN]

Just place the scripts just like it is in the Chaos Project and it should work.

[-Luke-]

I copied all 3 scripts into my game, but i don't know how to customize it to my needs, where do i edit what enemies drop what like it's saying? Where do i add those in?

[ShinyToyGuns]

In the second script, just ctrl+F "Multi-drop" without the quotes, and you should be able to find it.

[-Luke-]

Okay, but when i just take the multi-script part of it, it still doesn't do anything. I copy and pasted the whole multi-script area in part2 and put it in a new script. What's the next step? What do i add or fill in to what to make the changes i need for my game?

[RATED-RKOFRANKLIN]

Oh Yeah I forgot to say this. Welcome to the forums. It's good to see a new member.

[-Luke-]

Thanks for the welcome =]

[-Luke-]

So here's the code. I don't know where to put something like when it's saying to put 'when 1 then return [[1, 2, 50], [3, 15, 10], [2, 4, 5]]'. where do i put one of that with my customized info in it?

# Compatbility:
#   
#   Compatible with RTAB and Blizz-ABS 1.70 and higher. Will most probably
#   cause problems with CBS-es that have the start_phase5 method modified.
# 
# 
# Explanation:
#   
#   This add-on allows you to make enemies that drop more than one item. The
#   drops are independent, so if an enemy drops one item, he can drop another
#   one as well. An enemy can even have a couple of drop of the same item.
#   
#   
# Instructions:
#   
#   Configure the drop database below and set up the compatibility
#   configuration. The compatibility ocnfiguration is only needed if you are
#   using RTAB. Blizz-ABS 1.70 and higher will be recognized automatically.
#   
#   
# Side note:
#   
#   This add-on could have been written in less than 100 lines of code, but
#   full RTAB compatbility takes its piece of code.
#

Hey, the script carefully consider it. There, everything is clear and simple.

( ) when 1 then return [[1, 2, 50], [3, 15, 10], [2, 4, 5]]

You doing like this:
when 1 then return [[Item number, Item ID, Chance]...]
when 2 then return [[Item number, Item ID, Chance]...]
when 3 then return [[Item number, Item ID, Chance]...]
...

And do this again. This is simple.

[-Luke-]

Didn't work when i did that..I'll try again i guess..

[-Luke-]

I still can't figure it out and i've posted this on many many forums all over. Thanks guys for the help but i'm still not getting this.

Now i'm requesting a demo and i will absolutely grateful to the person who can help me figure it out and i will credit them.

I am using Mr.Mo's Action Battle System so keep in mind, i don't know if that will effect how it works. I don't care if it's Tons of Addons scripts or something different.

-OOPS CAN A STAFF DELETE THE OTHER 2 OF THESE IT POSTED A BUNCH I DIDNT EVEN CLICK IT MORE THAN ONE TIME-

[-Luke-]

Staff Delete Please!

Staff Delete Please!

[ShinyToyGuns]

Exactly what sort of demo are you looking for? I might be able to help, as I've used Tons of Add-Ons before, and it's worked fine for me.

[UrHappyPlz]

Woah, please refrain from quadruple-posting...

..anyway, that sounds like a neat script to try out. I'll take a crack at it and if I figure it out, I'll let you know.

...wait, will this work with Mr. Mo's ABS? Or the default battle system?

[-Luke-]

@Shiny-A demo with working Multi-drops. I just need a simple demo with the scripts and just one map with an enemy that has 2 or 3 working drops, and they both have a chance of getting. Thanks.

@UrHappy-Thanks,I appreciate it.

[ShinyToyGuns]

Ok, I made a quick demo using Blizz-ABS and Tons of Add-Ons...it doesn't say when the enemy drops, but if you check your inventory after battle, you should have one of Item ID 1, 2, and 3. (I set each of them to drop 100%).

You can use default controls, and to attack, use Tab.

Edit: woot...300 posts

[-Luke-]

Grats on 300th post. I'm Testing right now..Thanks.

[ShinyToyGuns]

No problem, lemme know if it works/if you have any questions

[-Luke-]

I copied the exact script and used the same enemy but no positive results. I'm starting to think it has something to do with the ABS i'm using, so i'm going to try Blizz. I'll let you know how that turns out, Thanks so much guys.

[ShinyToyGuns]

Yea, it probably is incompatible with Mr. Mo's ABS...personally, I prefer Blizz-ABS, because it's compatible with a lot of scripts, and it's easier to understand than most other ABS systems (at least I think so).

[-Luke-]

It worked. Finally i get good results. The fact that i have to use Blizz which i'm not too used to isn't the best, but i can fiddle around with it to fit my needs. Thank so much Shiny and everyone else that helped =]. I'll credit everyone that helped into my game.



~Thanks~Luke~

[ShinyToyGuns]

No problem, it was my pleasure

If you need any help with Blizz-ABS, just ask.

PS ~ I recommend downloading the configuration utility if you want to assign your own custom controls, etc. without fiddling with the script. It can be found in the official Blizz-ABS thread.

PPS ~ If this problem is solved, edit your first post so that it has [SOLVED] in the title
