tAPI Lucky Blocks Mod

[Wulf'frid]

I did a bit of further testing and I noticed that the npc/item dump in the ocean was only happening when I was using the elemental version, it hasn't happened again with the base version.

Although I have noticed something peculiar with this mod, the randomness seems to be weighted more towards certain items and effects, namely end game gear and towards hard mode enemies and bosses. Just curious but what method are you using for the randomness method?

main.rand.next(item ids) this does occur, but I assure you that it is purely random, and there is nothing I can do to affect it.

Just seems weird, I ran a few tests and over 4000 red blocks I ended up with a 6.2% rate of getting sweetheart necklaces and around 4% each of getting a scourge of the corrupter and the same for vampire knives. I wonder if there is something else buried in the code that affects the chances of getting certain items.

If it is, it's not in my code, it may be in the Terraria code though, what skinpack are you using? The basic?

Also, I've noticed this from day one, so I'll check over my code again.

I have tried all four, pretty much the same results with the randomness. The elemental skin seems to be the worst for randomly dumping items in the ocean in my experience however.

Just released my spotlight video for this mod.

Going to try this out tonight in conjunction with some other mods for funs. c: thanks for making this mod possible~ It's like an early christmas and will keep me occupied until 1.3 is released and probably after that hohoho.

You're very welcome, thanks for the support

If tAPI is discontinued, I will update this mod to whatever the new modding API is, if tAPI isn't discontinued, I will continue to update this mod for the newest versions

 

[Yellow Mudkip]

Is this mod updated for 1.3?

 

[Wulf'frid]

Is this mod updated for 1.3?

I don't think that there's tAPI for 1.3, I think you can only run a 1.2.0.4 version.

 

[jackinbox101]

Update to r16 please

 

[Wulf'frid]

Update to r16 please

(In starcraft ghost voice) You got it.
As soon as I update tAPI, I'll start updating this mod, maybe add a couple worldgen features or something, who knows?

Does it work on mobile?

 

[Wulf'frid]

Does it work on mobile?

Uhhhh.... There isn't even tAPI for mobile...

It's a modding API for terraria, it allows you to create mods for the pc version, however, it is not currently updated for 1.3.0.7 or 1.3 at all, as I recall

 

[Rastriavis]

Dunno if anyone has suggested this, or if it's even possible, but you should add in the probability to spawn in custom built structures! (When it updates, of course)

 

[Wulf'frid]

Yes, at some point this will be updated for tModLoader, and I will add in custom structures, once I manage to find the willpower to do it
