Description

Like a little mini-game. As it suggests, it IS the lottery. Win money!

Features

• I made this as Plug-n-Play as I possibly could
• Different periods of the lottery or "Seasons"
• FIREWORKS!!!
• Easy customization of the length of a season, how much money to win, and the difficulty of winning
• Can buy more tickets before a new season begins
• Alerts you when the current season has ended so that you may go and return your tickets
• FULLY COMPATIBLE with my other event systems and more to come...
• NEW:(since 1.1) Now keeps track of how many times you've won the lottery and how much your last winning ticket was worth

Planned Additional Features

• None at the moment, Please suggest!

Screenshots

Not really applicable.

Instructions

To implement this event system, copy/paste my reserved Variables, Switches, Common Events, Items, and Animations into your game. Copy/paste the event guy that you talk to as well. Place him where ever you plan to have a lottery. Copy/paste the event for fireworks! Customization of the season length is explained in the common event. Customization of how much gold you can win is explained on the SECOND PAGE of the event guy. Customization of the difficulty of winning is explained on the SECOND PAGE of the event guy. To have the animation appear as though it does in the demo which I consider "properly executed", you must place the event to shoot the fireworks 8 spaces above where the fireworks will exit from. New:(since 1.1) Also copy/paste the event over the Sign in the sand of the demo. It keeps track of how many times you've won and your last amount won.

This seems like a cool event system. I couldn't win, but I like the fireworks. =o

[modern algebra]

This is pretty cool. I'll add it to RMRK+ list. It doesn't reserve animations or items though, so I'll have to leave them out.

Anyway, when you want them added, it's easier for me if you post in the topics themselves with links and to declare your reserves. I'll see them sooner 

[Grafikal]

Oh, I should probably reword a lot of things then, because when I mention "reserved" I just mean that those are the ID slots I'm using in the demo so that it'll just be easy to swap over to another person's game with minimal overlapping of ID's of stuff. There's not much that is reserved by something else in the demo except maybe the switches.
