That's a big w you have there. Can I borrow it?

You may borrow half of it so that we both have a v each.

And everybody was happy so they went home to drink beer.

Good idea, however it might be confusing to those who have never used an rc before.

[thotijn]

cool idea...

Not really. The players wouldn't need to know how the numbers were allocated.

Hmm... I'm presuming that Lycia's system works on server IDs, which are readable by NPCs. Though I'm not sure if the NPC Server can list all the players on the server. If not, then you could always do something like "come to suchandsuch room for a chance to win". Or maybe you could adapt the concept into a raffle.

You seem confused already ;-)
I think she means she will draw a number, (maybe with an npcw) then look at the I.D.'s, and possibly doing a roll-over if nobody wins...

Hmm... I'm not sure but wouldn't the following script work for that?

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats) {

  if (strequals(#g,Events Team)&&strequals(#c,ID-o-Matic)) {

    this.test=0;

    while (this.test==0) {

      i=int(random(0,150));

      with (players[i]) {

        this.test=1;

        playerrupees+=10;

      }

    }

  }

}

Please do not be so stupid. She is picking a random player using their server ids as reference.

I dunno, do normal NPCs have access to the players[index] objects of players on other levels?

I'm thinking that would instintanously (sp?) set this.test to 0, get the random number, give the player 10g and then set this.test to 1. Am I right?

[LordMatt]

how would that work? we wouldn't have the account name or nick of the player

If you're replying to me... It automattically adds the gralats to the drawn person.
