How to create random spawning during the game?

ebbe

Hej code wizards & Code Gurus mayeb @Cernel you might know..?

Still working here on a finishing touch of The Shogun Advanced and running in to this matter:

is there a way I could get Random Spawning (by "chance") of a specific type of unit without having to determine each single place
in a seperate trigger ( causing in this cause with over 160 terr's to be possible to place in far tooo much code )

Example: ```

<attachment name="triggerAttachment_Activate_Farmer_Uprisings" attachTo="Ikko-Ikki" javaClass="TriggerAttachment" type="player">
<option name="conditions" value="conditionAttachmentUprisingsTurn3"/>
<option name="placement" value="Aki:Farmer" count="1"/>
<option name="placement" value="Aki:Farmer" count="2"/>
<option name="placement" value="Awa:Farmer" count="1"/>
<option name="placement" value="Awa:Farmer" count="2"/>

      <option name="chance" value="1:20"/>
      <option name="when" value="after:minorNonCombatMove"/>
    </attachment>

so this will give a 1:20 chance for all 4 places get to Farmer uprising simultaneous where I look for a 1:20 chance for each separate one...

now the only solution I so far is as stated, getting EACH terr. its own TRIGGER... but that creates huge volume of coding..

is there another way? please let me know! or give me a refer to an example map...
( and I realize after my The Shogun compagnon @TheDog had looked at it there is a only tiny chance there will be another way )
Arrigato!

Just do a nested "foreach" loop.

@ebbe Take a look at my Zombies-World War 2 to see how to implement random uprisings.

Trying to crack the final issue here before starting a new ohter project!
So close to a Nesting solution here just miss one piece of the solution, after unsuccesfully trying to solve it a whole afternoon: here my help-call: anyone sees where it goes wrong?

I want every player to have each Fort_damaged replaced in a Fort (kind of auto-repair) in their own controlled Territory in their before their own Place-delegate: It all works fine except for the

<option name="when" value="before:@AllPlayersMinorLC@CombatMove"/>

( =AllPlayersMinor Low Caps ) Both elements <variable name="AllPlayersMinor" & AllPlayersMinorLC" are well defined... so that is fine... but it simply doesn't work then, not even a error notification... it does work when I replace AllPlayersMinorLC with one of the players names; but that takes away the nesting advantage as I still need to repeat this trigger for 15 players each...

    	<attachment foreach="$AllTerr$^$AllPlayersMinor$" name="conditionAttachment_Fort_damaged_@AllPlayersMinor@_@AllTerr@" attachTo="@AllPlayersMinor@" javaClass="RulesAttachment" type="player">
        <option name="directPresenceTerritories" value="@AllTerr@"/>
        <option name="unitPresence" value="Fort_damaged" count="1"/>
	</attachment>	
	
		<attachment foreach="$AllTerr$^$AllPlayersMinor$" name="triggerAttachment_Place_Fort_@AllPlayersMinor@_@AllTerr@" attachTo="@AllPlayersMinor@" javaClass="TriggerAttachment" type="player">
        <option name="conditions" value="conditionAttachment_Fort_damaged_@AllPlayersMinor@_@AllTerr@"/>
	    	<option name="when" value="before:@AllPlayersMinorLC@CombatMove"/>
	    	<option name="placement" value="@AllTerr@:Fort"/>
    </attachment>

	<attachment foreach="$AllTerr$^$AllPlayersMinor$" name="triggerAttachment_Remove_Fort_damaged_@AllPlayersMinor@_@AllTerr@" attachTo="@AllPlayersMinor@" javaClass="TriggerAttachment" type="player">
        <option name="conditions" value="conditionAttachment_Fort_damaged_@AllPlayersMinor@_@AllTerr@"/>
	    	<option name="when" value="before:@AllPlayersMinorLC@CombatMove"/>
	    	<option name="removeUnits" value="@AllTerr@:Fort_damaged" count="1"/>
    </attachment>

hmmm
Anyone who sees a solution? I'll be very thankfull!

@ebbe
You do not have 'AllPlayersMinorLC' in your "foreach" statement.
Try:
foreach="$AllTerr$^$AllPlayersMinor$:$AllPlayersMinorLC$"
and see if you get the results you are looking for.

Cheers...
