Random activation of DAC zone

[Carioca 1]

 

I would like to run this script server side. that's basically what it's supposed to do. When the "a1_trig" trigger fires (a trigger placed in the editor) it randomly chooses a value between B1 and B2. then the if loop checks that b1 (or b2) is true and activates a DAC zone or other one. I don't know why but it gives me an error hint and doesn't run the script. Would anyone with a good heart know how to correct this?i'm noob i known😅

 

null = [] spawn {

a1_trig = False;

_randomWp = selectRandom [b1,b2];

while {!a1_trig} do {

    if (_randomWP == b1)then {
    [["Bravo_1"]] call BIS_fnc_advHint;
    sleep 1;

    [z_b1] call DAC_Activate;}
    
    else (if(_randomWP == b2)then {
    [["Bravo_2"]] call BIS_fnc_advHint;
    sleep 1;

    [z_b2] call DAC_Activate;})

};

You have a syntax error on else ( instead of { (and double [ ])but if I understand what you're trying to achieve this might be simpler (on Trigger Activation):

[]spawn{
	switch (round (random 1)) do{
		case 1:{["Bravo_1"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b1] call DAC_Activate};
		case 2:{["Bravo_2"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b2] call DAC_Activate};
		default{};
	};
};

i seem to work in the office "complications simple things". thank you

...Oook ...seems that it choose only the case 1. Is there a way to randomize hardly this thing?

Just an off-by-one error 🙂 This version will have 50% probability of choosing either option.

[]spawn{
	switch (floor (random 2)) do{
		case 0:{["Bravo_1"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b1] call DAC_Activate};
		case 1:{["Bravo_2"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b2] call DAC_Activate};
		default{};
	};
};

Oh, thanks. I should've have gone with case 0, case 1. That would've worked too.

thus... if i would like to assign 33% i have to code :

[]spawn{

switch (floor (random 3)) do{

case 0:{["Bravo_1"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b1] call DAC_Activate};

case 1:{["Bravo_2"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b2] call DAC_Activate};

case 2:{["Bravo_2"] call BIS_fnc_advHint; sleep 1; [z_b2] call DAC_Activate};

default{};

};

};

 

 

am i right?
