How do I make random events?

Hello, I've at least 100 random events in my game. They appear every 10 seconds. They are like:

1)There is a pandemic. Will you open hospitals?

-Yes -No

2)They kidnapped you. Will you try to run?

-Yes -No

3)There was an earthquake. Will you run for help to people?

-Yes -No

Every yes and no answer has its own consequences. For example: If my player says Yes, his popularity will increase by 50, his money will increase by 1000 and his success will increase by 20. Money, popularity and success are my three global variables. So, when my player chooses yes or no my global variables will change accordingly. Yet, I don't know how to do that. Here's my array:

If you share an example I would appreciate it.

Are the choices always going to be yes and no?

if yes..

Just save your array like:

0,0 There is a pandemic. Will you open hospitals?

0,1 Amount of money, for yes

0,2 Amount of popularity, for yes

0,3 Amount of success, for yes

0,4 Amount of money, for no

0,5 Amount of popularity, for no

0,6 Amount of success, for no

Dear klabundee and oosyrag,

Yes, the answer always going to be yes and no. When I save my array as you said, what should I do next?

Thank u both for answering.

Hi, klabundee and mrcgkh

I'll ask one thing; My events should come once, I mean sometimes the same event comes three-four times in a row and I want my events to come only once in the game. How can I do that? Should I use ''advance random'' or is there any other way?

Thank u.

Advanced random is good, it can pick a random number from a set without repeating.

Alternatively, after you pick a row from the array, just delete it out of the array.

You can create an randomized array but it will not guarantee a repetition. For example you have 4(numbered as 0,1,2,3) events. You put them in an array and shuffled it. And on every 4 events you will shuffle again

Group 1 Group 2 Group 3

(0,3,1,2) (3,2,0,1) (1,3,0,2)

Between passing group 2 to group 3 same event will re occur.

Still, such an approach will reduce repetitions.

I agree, the best way is to use Advanced Random but I couldn't totally use it right.

How am I supposed to use advanced random in my event sheet? If you share an example it would be good:)

I would suggest having a column on the array to store if the question could repeat or not. This way you can control which question could repeat.

Just store 0 and 1 on a new column, and when this question apper on screen, compare if this column is = 0 if yes, remove this question from array, if 1 just keep it for next random.

klabundee can u show me an example of it, please?

Yes. In the same example as I sent before, I just added a new column, and it stores 1 and 0. When it call for a question, if the column value = 0 it will remove the question/answers from the array.
