 |
|
Hi, I've tried a few times and can't seem to get this working.
Firstly, I would like to have a step on NPC do a stat roll. ie checks a certain stat of the hero and adds a random number. This is then weighted up against a "difficulty value" which also has a random number added to it. If the hero's total equals or betters the difficulty value then the roll is succesful and an appropriate event happens. Likewise in the event of a failed roll.
One example I have is broken glass. I would like the game to test the hero's agility + random number between 0 and 4 against a difficulty of 8 + random (0,6).
If the test is succesful then the player can continue as normal, whereas if the test fails the hero takes damage.
Any easy way of deducting HP through scripting?
Replies appreciated, thanks in advance.  |

That sounds like a save roll in D&D. Nice.
What you're after is get hero stat and set hero stat. The first can check the value of any stat (including HP), and the second can change that value. |

With set herostat, what is the best way to get it to deduct a given amount instead of setting hp to a set value.
Thanks. |

As its own script:
| Code: | script, lose hp, who, quantity (
set hero stat (stat: HP, who, get hero stat (stat: HP, get hero stat, current stat) -- quantity, current stat)
) |
or you can put that line inside of a larger script. The power is yours!

Moogle means:
| Code: | script, lose hp, who, quantity (
set hero stat (who, stat: HP, get hero stat (who, stat: HP, current stat) -- quantity, current stat)
) |
It relies on you importing your HSI file. So if you renamed your HP stat, you'lll need to change that of course.

And you could lose the "current stat" part because it defaults to that anyway.
Cheers for that, no ideas on the D&D style stat roll?
A "damage hp(amount)" command would be a nice addition.
Appreciated. |

Okay, here's a script to check if a stat is above a certain amount:
| Code: | script, check stat, who, stat, amt (
return (get hero stat(who, stat) >= amt)
) |
Tying these two together, you might have a script that looks like this:
| Code: | if (check stat(leader, stat:Dog, 8 + random(0,6)) == false)
then (lose hp(hero, random(25,50))) |
Or in other words, if the leader's Dodge stat isn't greater than 8-14, he loses 25-50 HP.

Simple mistake, Moogle1 forgot a closing parenthesis after the random(0,6) to close the arguments of his check stat function.
EDIT: Never mind, he edited and fixed it.

Fixed, thanks. This is the problem with scripting off the top of my head.

More exactly, that would be
| Code: | if (get hero stat(who, stat) + random(0, 4) >= 8 + random(0, 6))
then (lose hp(hero, random(25,50)))
