Lua Wondering about a function.

[Calon]

hello,
is there any function to remove some item[for example (stone)] from different position got the same item(stone) by a switch ??

For example a room got 4 stones in different positions,
if the player use a switch , a random stone disappear and the next time another stone remove etc.
i mean doRemoveItem but in a random way.

Rep ++

I'm not so good at lua, but I think can be done with math.random.

Something like:

local stone = {
    [1] = 1234,
    [2] = 1222,
    [3] = 1236,
    [4] = 1555
}
 
doRemoveItem(cid, stone[math.random(4)], 1)

For positions maybe you can use getThingFromPos

cool but i care the most about the position such like first stone x y z second x y z etc

I really dont remember how math.random works but it is something like this:

local stonePos = {
    {x=1234,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1235,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1236,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1237,y=1234,z=7}
}

local stoneRemove = math.random(stonePos)
doRemoveItem(getThingFromPos(stoneRemove).uid)

local stonePos = {
    {x=1234,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1235,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1236,y=1234,z=7},
    {x=1237,y=1234,z=7}
}

local i = 0
while i < #stonePos do
	i = i + 1
	local stone = getTileItemById(stonePos[math.random(#stonePos)], [COLOR="#FF0000"]stoneId[/COLOR]).uid
	if stone ~= 0 then
		doRemoveItem(stone)
		break
	end
end

works cool Cykotitan but what about if the player re use the switch for example the stone was gone before appears again then another new stone disappear ?

 

[Cykotitan]

yes, until there's no stones left

you can set a global storage and then refuse to perform action if it's set

if getStorage(1234) == 1 then
	return doPlayerSendCancel(cid, 'your text')
end

-- later in the code
doSetStorage(1234, 1)
