Say and Random number

[RocketRock]

Recently, I've been have some fun by following people around and typing "/me steals 3 silver and 23 copper from your bag" and stuff like that.
I was just wondering if possible, what the commands are to make a macro that does this:

/me steals <Random Integer Between 1 and 5> silver and <Random Number Integer 1 and 99> copper from your bag.

I'm sure there are some better uses for such a macro, but any help on the matter would be appreciated.

Gimme a bit to have a think.

Whilst I'm doing that, this works I guess, you have to enter the 3 amounts tho

/script s={"Phrase 1","Phrase 2","Phrase 3"};SendChatMessage(s[random(1,3)], "SAY")

Thanks, I'll try that for now.

RandomRoll(low, high) is what you are looking

/script SendChatMessage("me steal" .. RandomRoll(1,5) .. "silver and" .. RandomRoll(0,99) .. "copper from your bag", "SAY", "Common","")
or
/script s=RandomRoll(1,5) c=RandomRoll(0,99) SendChatMessage("me steal" .. s .. "silver and" .. s .. "copper from your bag", "SAY", "Common","")

.. is concatenation in lua language, which scripts are written in. I didn't try atm i hope they work dude.

If it doesnt work tell me. The nil values of sendchatmessage might causing problem. for simplicity you can just use SendChatMessage(message) coz defaults are SAY,Common,nil

BTW last parameter (nil) is "channel" and used with whisper generally.

I tried both, and the only thing that happens is I get 2 /roll's show up. One for 1-5 and one for 0-99.

Is there a way to randomise a number without using the /randomroll or /roll?

This works for me

/script s=random(5);c=random(99);SendChatMessage("steals " .. s .. " silver and " .. c .. " copper from your bag", "EMOTE", "Common","")

Haha! Awsome, thanks a lot.

Edit: Oh man I love this.

Good work dude. I didn't see random(low,high) function on wowwiki's api page but after you wrote i realized it's given on Lua functions page.

Have fun mates. I'm looking forward wotlk to renew my account ^^

I've made 3 ones to that I use depending on what level the people I'm around are to make it more believable.

Low level:

/script s=random(5);c=random(99);SendChatMessage("pickpockets " .. s .. " silver and " .. c .. " copper from your bag", "EMOTE", "Common","")

Medium level:

/script s=random(50);c=random(99);SendChatMessage("pickpockets " .. s .. " silver and " .. c .. " copper from your bag", "EMOTE", "Common","")

High level:

/script s=random(99);c=random(99);g=random(5);SendChatMessage("pickpockets " .. g .. " gold, ".. s .. " silver and " .. c .. " copper from your bag", "EMOTE", "Common","")
