Basic slot machine script?

Hi. I like to make a basic slot machine. What sort of thing should u use, Math? Plz post a basic Slot/Game script.

Since no one is touching this, I will.

I'm not gonna post a whole slot machine script because it's very simple. I'll post an example though.

The basic slot machine script. We will make a 50:50 (ie a coin toss)

default {
touch_start(integer num) {
float num = llFrand(1.0);
if(num > 0.5) {
//win
}
else {
//lose.
}
}
}

Pretty basic but that's how machines usually work. Some might have more then 1 winning condition. For a slot machine, you might be rolling 3 random number from 1 to 10 and have it so that if they are all the same if(num1 == num2 && num2 == num3). Anything bigger would probably take alot more time.

To add on to this, most random casino games are set so that the house wins at least 90% or more.

When you do llFrand(1), that will generate a random number between 0 and 1. This is also the same as between 0 and 100, aka percentages.

So if you want to make it so that the player has only a 97% chance of winning, you would do something like.

default {
touch_start(integer num) {
float num = llFrand(1.0);
if(num > 0.97) {
//win
}
else {
//lose.
}
}
}

All you have to realize is that a decimal is the same as a percentage, aka .5 = 50%, .9 = 90%, etc.

That code is 97% LOSS.

And it isn't so much that you win 90% of the time, but you win 990% of your money. A "win" condition occurs about 50-70% of the time, but in varrying amounts.

doh! yes, please change that to < instead of >

Slot machines aren't quite that simple. They have wheels that spin (animation) for varying amounts of time, it has to take money, pay out money, show a little LCD with how much money it's currently holding, do the math on winning / losing, etc. I actually have a complete three wheel slot machine with five character LCD that looks similar to the ones you see all over SL, but I don't have access to in-game right now. Leave me an IM and I can get to it.
