help with randomizing the order of an alias
|
i am using an alias to create multiple portals going to different rooms
#alias portals {portal 4601 10000;portal 4601 29906;portal 4601 29903;portal 4601 1271;portal 4601 29910;portal 4601 27000;portal 4601 29909;portal 4601 1279;portal 4601 29904;portal 4601 10000;portal 4601 9902;portal 4601 1245;portal 4601 15698;portal 4601 21746;portal 4601 21599;portal 4601 10000;portal 4601 25945;portal 4601 11551;portal 4601 1270;portal 4601 26258}
(portal command) (type of portal) (room number)
currently to randomize i am cutting and pasting a section to reorder
i am interested in learning/figuring out how to randomize it each time i do the alias
so far I've have been reading for a few hours and things like variable list that does 1 action of the list, i would like to do all
i am pretty inexperienced at this, if someone could help me out that would be awesome! |

Put this in the command line and see what it makes. It will remove your existing portals alias to ensure that there is no confusion.
| Code: |
#UNALIAS portals
#CLASS RandPortals
#VAR PortalLocations {10000|10000|10000|29906|29903|1271|29910|27000|29909|1279|29904|9902|1245|15698|21746|21599||25945|11551|1270|26258}
#ALIAS portals {#SEND {portal 4601 %item(@PortalLocations,%random(1,%numitems(@PortalLocations)))}}
#CLASS 0 |

wow great!
originally i wanted each portal to be made at once with a different order, which means each room does get used.
but for practicality it isn't not a big deal if a few rooms don't get used. this is much better then what i was doing. thank you! |
