Random Flag Settings using Scripts

[apolloace]

Question - Suppose, I have 4 flags which are set to FALSE. I want to choose randomly, to set any 2 of them to TRUE.

 

What are the lua functions or scripts available to perform this task? :helpsmilie:

if you know their names and keep them in the table you can arrange a function that will withdraw 2 of them randomly

 

local flagName = flagNames[math.rand(1, #flagNames)]
local flag = trigger.misc.getUserFlag(flagName)

Hi ruskybeaver, I had to tweak the code a little bit, to make it work.

 

local flagName = flagNames[mist.random(#flagNames)]
mist.scheduleFunction(trigger.action.setUserFlag, {flagName, true}, timer.getTime() + 1)

 

I had kept the flags inside the table flagNames and then used a condition loop to get the desired flags set to TRUE.

 

Thanks a lot for your help. :)
