Random chance to emote
|
I managed to sort my first problem out. Sort of. It's probably a hugely inelegant way of doing it, but ho hum!
Anyway, I want to have a % chance for an emote to fire at the same time as a command - what's the best way to go about doing this? |

#oninput {*} {#if (%random(1,100)>50) {do an emote}}

%item(@emoteList, %random(1, %numitems(@emoteList)))

And to combine the two...
#oninput {*} {#IF (%random(1,100) > 90) {%item(@emoteList, %random(1, %numitems(@emoteList)))}}
This is a 10% chance, simply lower the 90 to change that higher. Remember, your % chance with this method is the REMAINDER of the 90 out of 100, which is 10.
This randomizes your chance of emoting, and also randomly chooses an emote from a list...
Here is a sample emote list:
emoteList {cough|sneeze|emote pukes on his shoes|spit self|emote bites his nails}
cough, sneeze, and spit are all socials on my former mud. spit self would make your drool.
the others are manual emotes using the emote command.
Enjoy. |

I bet you get 17 in a row on a bad day and curse the levity.
