Raid Chance

[GuilleMoniz]

Im trying to use/create a chance raid system. I dont like the margin shit one. I need to be like for example. Every 3h there's 25% chance of raid sucess. that could be aweasome. I tried to add "change = 25" but that simple doesnt work at all

Anyone have a better idea?

You can handle raids by lua in globalevents with intervals.

 

[WibbenZ]

Ex server/raids.lua at master · orts/server · GitHub

Then use math.random()

Can you give me a example? Im pretty new about programing... Im doing well creating the map and stuff (working in a 8.60 right now for a few months) Im playing this game already for 13 years, I quit being top 16 global 1 year ago and I want to create a real tibia server with what players really love to do

Please read the rules of the support thread man, people can't help much without knowing the server version and also if you want someone to create a script for you then you should post in requests.

That said, this was created based off tfs 1.2 so it might not work but you get the idea.

local raids = {"Orc Raid", "Troll Raid"}

function onTime(interval)
    local pick = math.random(1, #raids)
    Game.startRaid(raids[pick])
    Game.broadcastMessage(""..raids[pick].." has started!", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)
    table.remove(raids, pick)
    return true
end

Im so sorry. I am using tfs 1.0 server 8.60 global
Yep I want something like that lol. Where do I should add this script? Glogalevent?

I wanted something totally random, like for example: Like the normal raid system the server is using now but I would love to add a chance function...

right now is like:
<raid name="Morgaroth" file="Morgaroth.xml" interval2="30" margin="1000" enabled="yes"/>

They work with a time chance max and I dont really like it, I wanted something like "every 3h the server try to run the script, but it have only 30% of chance to sucess"... that way is gonna be totally random, also I want to be able to chance the % of chance of course.

Do you get the idea? I dont know If i examplain myself well... I hate the margin/interval shit lol

Yes globalevents, set it to an interval of 3 hours then add ex this;

math.randomseed(os.time)
-- function onInterval(...)

if math.random(100) <= 30 then
    -- code to execute the raid
end

Youll gonna laugh but I dont know how lol.. I am horrible adding new stuff (I usually just copy and paste already working scripts)... Because I just like to map and stuff and I am pretty new. So basically what I need to do to set it to work?

I need to create a new .lua on globalevents only with that right? or I am wrong? and how I set that to work with the raid stuff? how should the line will be like?

Something like that?
<raid name="Morgaroth" file="Morgaroth.xml" interval2="10800" chance="30" enabled="yes"/>

I am ashamed, I tried to figure how to set the raids work for 4 days already and I can't... I never ask for help but right now im getting crazy hahaha

Go to the server directory.
Enter data/globalevents/
In globalevents.xml add this;

<globalevent name="customRaids" interval="10800000" script="custom/raids.lua" />

Then enter /data/ and create (if it dosn't exist) a folder called custom.
Then in there create a file called raids.lua, open that file.
And in that file add this;

local raids = {"Orc Raid", "Troll Raid"}

math.randomseed(os.time())
function onThink(interval, lastExecution)
    if math.random(100) >= 100 then
        return false
    end

    local pick = math.random(1, #raids)
    Game.startRaid(raids[pick])
    Game.broadcastMessage(raids[pick] .. " has started!", MESSAGE_STATUS_WARNING)
    table.remove(raids, pick)

    return true

I'm new to math.randomseed(), just read a little bit but wondering if your usage here is to just to make sure the functions generates new math.random numbers everytime?

Well let's say everytime the time is update (every millisecond) the "random" is changed, if you use a static number (aka never changes) the random won't change.
If you have / add math.randomseed(os.time()) into global.lua you won't need it in other scripts.

If you want to you can use my raids.lua. I wrote it some months ago. For some other project, but in the end it wasnt used.

This one looks more like my original idea. but It brings an error (idk if is because i'm using tfs 1.0)

Did you change it? Post it in that case.

Im not 100% sure if 1.0 had used the old table system for positions or not.

Not really, I just remove the "+" after the error but is still not working

Yeah I guess i can't use on 1.0, because I dont see any error but im kinda new in scripts lol
