How does a loot system works? - CrazyChoco - 05.06.2013

Hi guys,
Could someone explain how a simple loot system works. I actually doesn't know so much about it, so i thought i would ask here.
Could someone also put a little snippet of a very basic loot system, or atleast give some help, on how to do it?

Thanks

Loot is mostly like treasure or wealth that is found or stolen, but in my case i want them to be placed in some special cordinates and when player run into them a dialog will be posted, but i actually don't know how to :/

Just save tons of positions in a array..

make a random and find one of this tons of positions

create a pickup or whatever you want to create in this positions..

maybe set a timer for disappear

some variables for check if is here and if is taken

and the callback for player pickup with the reward

pawn Код:

Float:Positions[2][3] = {
    {0.0,0.0,0.1719},
    {0.0,0.0,0.1719}
};
new bool:IsPickupCreated,PickupID;



/commandforcreate {
    if(IsPickupCreated == true) return .. the pickup is already created
    new rando = random(sizeof(Positions));
    PickupID = createsomepickup(someid,Positions[rando][0],Positions[rando][1],Positions[rando][2]);
    IsPickupCreated = true;
    SetTimer("PickupDisappear",10000,0);
}



public PickupDisappear()
{
    DestroyPickup(PickupID);
    IsPickupCreated = false;
}

public OnPlayerPickUpPickup(playerid, pickupid)
{
    if(pickupid == PickupID)
    {
        GivePlayerMoney(playerid, 2342354);
        IsPickupCreated = false;
        //sendclientmessage for announce the winner
    }
    return 1;
}

Thanks for the basic snippet, I am already trying to modify your code
