Re: [WIP] Fhizban's Armory (Update Nov 05)

more updates, got a bit of scripting done after work: 1. There is now a Drop rate, so loot is not automatically dropped and crazy amounts of loot piling up in the dungeon are prevented. in addition, the drop rate may be modified in various ways: * the base drop rate is 15% and can be modified (globa...

Re: Enter/Leave Game/Level Hook

@Xanathar arrrgggh, yes you are right - so much stuff to think about! how about this: another script entity that runs automatically with an if-then structure that checks the current dungeon level first? if party.level == 1 then if var_init == false then --do dungeon level 1 init stuff var_init = tru...

Re: Here's one for ya

@ZeroAlligator thanks! creating random items on-the-fly is a bit too much for me right now (is there a clone function? did not know!)
