DICE ROLL and if statements

[Timberduck]

I want to do a dice roll
and the result activates an if statement:

1-10 activates if statement A
11-20 activates if statement B'

You should be able to achieve that through normal conditionals and a random integer. It shouldn't require any changes or additions to Ren'Py.

Don't remember the syntax off the top of my head, but python has randint-
dice = randint(1,11)
if dice <= 10
statement a

I am trying to get Dice roll to work
my problem is displaying the roll.
I have spent a few hours already and I am just about to defenestrate my computer into my monitor.

just need an answer.

This is a question about how to use RenPy. I move it to RenPy Questions and Announcements.

I also merge the topic. You don't need to make a new thread to ask same question.

Also, please be patient. It hasn't even been one hour since you last ask your question. Everyone have a life out there and not to mention this is an international forum.

Sorry,

Something I've used in the past:

Code: Select all

def dice(value, limit=100, show=True):
        '''Returns True if value is <= a random integer between 1 and limit.

        If limit is 100, this means that a value of 60 has a 60% chance for True
        '''
        number = random.randint(1, limit)
        if number <= value:
            result = True
        else:
            result = False
        if config.developer and show:
            renpy.notify(u"Resulted in %d from %d, limit - %d, and result - %s." % (number, limit, value, result))
        return result

was abandoned in favor of:

Code: Select all

    def dice(value):
        """Randomly generated percentage chance to return a bool"""
        return (value / 100.0) > random.random()

as calling dice with notify few hundred times in a raw made Ren'Py really sluggish.

Thanks for your help just one last thing
expected statement.
def dice(value):
^
anyway to cure this ?

Oh, it's python, you have to put this in init python:

Without showing results:

Code: Select all

init -10 python: 

    def dice(value):
        """Randomly generated percentage chance to return a bool"""
        return (value / 100.0) > random.random()
