Password awesome Chest

First i would say thanks to Mastermoo420 for the special chest tutorial, I got an idea from he's special chest system and mixed it with my chest system. So if the password is 5001 or higher you get good items, if it's 5000 and lower you get so so items, i recommend you do his tutorial 1st so here it is:


http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,16852.0.html

1. After you do that open up the sign event and on the 1st page put it to parallel process and take away the message or text that shows the variable #, also put the variable random # between 1 and 9999 and on the 2nd page leave it as it is, here's what it should be like:

------------------------------------------
1st page on Sign(show Password)

<>Variable: [####: password] = Random (1..9999)
<>Local Switch A = ON
<>

2nd page

<>Message: \v[ # ]             {Variable Number you assigned for variable password}
<>
------------------------------------------


2. Next click the Chest event and on the input # put 4 digits instead of 2 digits because it can be ####, under the conditional branch that says if password equals input number make a new conditional branch that if variable password is >= 5001, got that? good.

(when i say under the conditional branch i mean inside it, do not put execute custom handler)
(In the treasure chest event make it fixed direction)
(After you finish you could put all on a conditional branch that only if char facing up and else message  "Cant open from here")

3. Next under that conditional branch make a variable operation and make a new variable called "items" that is set = to random #'s between 1 and 5(or how many different items you can get).

4. Put a conditional branch under the variable operation that if variable items = any of the # between 1 and 5 then here it get complicated but make a move event in the conditional branch that lock facing is off and make it face Down,Left,Right,Up(this event)after it put a wait of 8, add the message for what you got and the item thing that gives them to you, then make local switch A = ON.

5. For the other 1-5 copy step 4 but change it to if  items = 2 or items =  3 and so on to strong items only, should look something like this:



6. Later on make a conditional branch if variable password is <= 5000 then copy step 3 and 4  for weak items, here is a screen shot, also a demo. Still need help? then message me.

Will help people more.

yeah thanks,done.

Sry for necro-posting, but please make the text white, black is just hard to read if you're using the Dark Theme. Apart from that, nice tut, I think I might be able to use this, I've never quite understood variables (shocking, I know...), and I've been trying to do this (without succes, as I still don't get variables.) for some time. I'm lazy, I know. But heck. Useful to... newbs if that is the right word, even though I hate calling myself a newb... But I guess I can't trick anyone, and there's no use lying to yourself... grr... Ah well, moving off topic once again. Nice tut, keep 'em coming!

Thx but you could get the demo at the bottom, and I also but it white, I didn't notice the themes.

Yeah well, my cpu's overloaded with downloads. I've filled two desktops now with downloaded stuff (COMPLETELY FILLED)

Uhhh... Download it to some other place? Use a folder? >_>

Yes, yes alright I'll download the frigging demo. I just forgot about this. Besides, I'd bet my bed on that I won't be able to edit the game.

EDIT: Alright, I downloaded it, and I am VERY happy we didn't bet because I wouldn't have had anywhere to sleep then. Of the, what, 30 downloads, this is prolly the THIRD I've been able to edit.
