Item Tables - Little Help?

[Gelemor]

OK... So I have a map where its one base/team/race (Humans) opposing the other (Orcs). in the map there are multiple barrel locations where you can bust open the barrel and there is a chance that an item will drop. As a test to make sure it was correctly, i tested it. I busted open the barrel and picked up the item. I waited for the barrel to respawn; so i break it and the item does not drop again. Anybody know how to fix this? I used the item table from map and set the Item to a 100% drop and it doesnt drop after respawning. Little help? :banghead:

Do I have the right idea?

I learned how to do this before but it has been awhile since i made a map and i completely forgot. Could someone please point me in the right direction to go atleast?

You need to adjust it in the object editor not in the interface (just right click and set what item its gonna drop)

(just right click and set what item its gonna drop)

Sorry, i forgot you were talking about destructibles. This trigger should work.

Event- 
Destructible - A destructible within (Playable map area (or your area) dies Condition- 
(Destructible-type of (Dying destructible)) Equal to Barrel  
Action- 
Item - Create (Tome of Experience or what ever you want...) at (Position of (Dying destructible))

This will work unless you have more than 64 barrels in the region

OK... I get that part. So would you know how to fix it if I wanted the drop to be a % chance?

 

[Cres]

Alright, i always do it this way but im not sure if this is the "official" way

Use the same trigger
but you need a variable "chance" (integer)

Action
set variable chance to random number between 1-100
If- chance is less than or equal to (your percent)
Then- (my action from the last post)
Else- do nothing
