Item Drop System - Will this Work?

Okay, so I was being lazy, and wanted to create a tiered item drop system, but didn't want to enter in every single little item manually, and I don't know how to use JASS

So, I cooked up an initialization that works something like a preloader, and I was wondering if it will work, before I go through the trouble of actually making the DROP system


here's the revised request for help

Code: 
Item Table Init
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Item - Pick every item in Item Pregen <gen> and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Set ItemDrop_Level_Count = (ItemDrop_Level_Count + 1)
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        (Item level of (Picked item)) Equal to ItemDrop_Level_Count
                    Then - Actions
                        Set ItemCounter = (ItemCounter + 1)
                        Set Item_Drop_Type[ItemCounter] = (Item-type of (Picked item))
                        Item - Remove (Picked item)
                    Else - Actions
                Set ItemDrop_Cap[ItemDrop_Level_Count] = ItemCounter

I used the reveal cheat while testing, and the items don't get removed

THEN I set up the actual drop system and added a debug message or two
Everything WORKS except it doesn't have a set of items to draw from, anyone wanna help me out?

Code: 
Item Drops
    Events

I don't understand what it works for... so... like AceHart said...
"You don't need to worry if the problem is yet to occur"
or something like that XD

> (Item level of (Picked item)) Equal to ItemDrop_Level_Count

What is that supposed to test?

You're picking items rather randomly, and, if, by chance, they happen to have some specific level, they are used, otherwise not...

Ah I think I need to do an integer loop

What I was trying to do was make it so that say a level 100 creep could drop a level 9 item or below

or... say a level 50 creep would drop a level 4 item or below

but I only want it to drop items I pick

sorry about the double-post, but I wanted to bring this to Ace's Attention assuming he is still on

So I redid the init code, and it works, becuause I came up with a debug test that makes it work

The drop code still doesn't work, however, asn I can't figure out why

here is the redone init code and the debug test code

Code: 
Item Table Init
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        For each (Integer A) from 0 to 9, do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Set ItemDrop_Level_Count = (Integer A)
                Item - Pick every item in Item Pregen <gen> and do (Actions)
                    Loop - Actions
                        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                            If - Conditions
                                (Item level of (Picked item)) Equal to ItemDrop_Level_Count
                            Then - Actions
                                Set ItemCounter = (ItemCounter + 1)
                                Set Item_Drop_Type[ItemCounter] = (Item-type of (Picked item))
                                Item - Remove (Picked item)
                            Else - Actions
                        Set ItemDrop_Cap[ItemDrop_Level_Count] = ItemCounter


Code: 
Drop Debug
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -Drop as A substring
    Conditions
    Actions
        Item - Create Item_Drop_Type[(Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))] at (Center of (Playable map area))


Wow, I feel dumb... I had the Item drop at center of playable map, not at APoint.... :banghead:

nvm nvm

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
