Random Unit Creation

[vi3tbomba]

:banghead: Ok, I edited this one but here is what I'm trying to do.

Set RandomChance = (Random integer between 1 and 100)

If RandomChance = 1 to 25
Then Create Footman

If RandomChance = 26 to 50
Then Create Archer

If Tier_RandomUnit = 50 to 100
Then Create Peon

So there is a 25% chance that it will create a Footman or an Archer and a 50% chance to create a Peon.
But, how do I make it where once a Footman is created, RandomChance is rolled again but it cannot roll 1 to 25; therefore, creating a Footman will not happen.

Thanks for any help on this one.

well you could have an int with an array that sets the random number into the array. Then when the random int fires check if it was the same int as any of the ones before. If it IS then just tell it to redo it. Might require some hard triggering though

Put all unit types in an array (at map init for example):

Set Units[1] = this unit
Set Units[2] = that unit
Set Units[3] = some unit
Set Units[4] = other unit

Some integer that tells you how many you have:

Set Count = 4


And, when you need one:

Set TempInteger = Random integer between 1 and Count
Unit - Create 1 Units[TempInteger] at <somewhere> for <someone> facing default
Set Units[TempInteger] = Units[Count]
Set Count = Count - 1

This can run as often as you have units in that array. No repeats.
