Loot table

[Callirgos]

Umm.. How do I read the loot table? I can't make sense of it from the 2da in near infinity. How does it work? Soeciffically how do I append it to include more items?

[lynx]

rndtreas and co? The row name is the pseudoitem that is used in creatures, which is then resolved to a random other item in the same row.

[Callirgos]

So if I want to add an item to the possible items for a specific creature I just change that line on the 2da? Is there a limit?

[lynx]

No idea if there's a nonsensible limit, but that's trivial to test.

[Callirgos]

Ok seems worth a try. How do I do it?

[lynx]

with APPEND_COL, which means you'll have to use dummies for the rest.

[Callirgos]

Could you show me an example of this? I've looked through some mods but I don't see one. I'm not sure what you mean by "dummies".

[lynx]

By dummies I meant other items or just the same entries as your new one (no randomness then) if the table isn't full yet. See iesdp for the details (rndtreas.2da) and http://www.weidu.org/~thebigg/README-WeiDU.html for how to alter tables with APPEND/APPEND_COL.

Erhm, this.

Hi guys, I really appreciate you pointing out the documentation. I'm not understanding it. I really need an example to make sense of these instructions. Where can I find one? What does a single appended line look like? Then I'd be able to understand the document.

[lynx]

APPEND_COL ~weapprof.2da~ ~$ $ SORCERER_MONK 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0~
UNLESS ~SORCERER_MONK~

APPEND ~profs.2da~ ~SORCERER_MONK 2 5~
UNLESS ~SORCERER_MONK~

(the UNLESS are there for idempotency)

[Callirgos]

ok. I think I undrastand. Thank you.

 

IWDII seems to have 3 treasure tables. it looks to me like RT_NORM and RT_FURY are used, while rndtreas does nothing. Is this true?

Could someone clear up the naming convention for me?

 

RT = Random Treasure

What is the 01 to 15 used for?

Also there are labels, _L, _M, _R, _V

Any one know these?

[lynx]

only three?

Hah, looking at the table, i don't think we implement the 'UP' type
