Random monster spawn help

I would like for a weak monster to spawn from a cave every 5 seconds, but I'd also like a strong monster to spawn every 30 seconds. It's important that the strong monster spawns in place of the weak monster instead of with it. Is this possible?

That is possible and not too hard.

Make a global variable.

Every 5 seconds add 1 to global variable

If global variable is smaller then 6 > Spawn weak monster

If global variable is equal to 6 > Spawn strong monster

> Set global variable to 0

Good luck ^^

Thanks! I will try that.

I did this recently with an special enemy that is spawned in an specific interval of time (3~8 seconds).

Set Enemy to floor(random(3,8))

"Enemy" is a global variable that is used in a later event that interrupt the commom enemies spawn.

System > Set group "commom enemies" deactivated

Generator > Spawn Special Enemy on layer 0

System > Wait 1 second

System > Set group "commom enemies" activated
