How to make a simple fishing system AND Loot Tables(Re-made)

So… No, I’m not coming back… Sorry. But I peeked back on and saw… well, a big number of notifications, pretty much all of ‘em on this guide. The OG one.

Original Guide: How to make a simple fishing system AND Loot Tables [SIMPLIFIED, UPDATED, AND WITH PICTURES] 4/10

Fishing
The Basic Part

First, make that classic water terrain! What’s fishing without a lake?

Make a button like this:

Now, enlarge the button, copy it multiple times, and put those buttons around the lake, like this:

Make a checker with settings like these:

The Actual Fishing Part, or, FISHing

Block time! Make a trigger with these settings:

Also, make sure that it is NOT visible in game and also NOT trigger-able by a player stepping on it.

Blocks for the trigger:

You do NOT need to use the same fish and numbers as me!

Now, make a few popups for each of the fish types. Example:

Do the same for an “Out of Bait!” Popup.

Getting the Fish

Item Granter settings for each type of fish’s item granter:

The channel should be the granting channel used when the fish is chosen, and the channel that shows the popup, and the item should be… well, the fish.

Property settings for each type of fish’s property:

Have a trigger receiving on each Fish channel that grants +1 to the respective property.

Selling the Fish

Set the given item to whatever the fish type is.

Do the same for all other types of fish. (The code will be in item granters that are connected to your sell table.)

Make another item granter that grants “cash”, or whatever currency you’re using. Do this code:

That should be all? I rushed through this because I really don’t have time; If anyone has problems, just reply, and someone will answer it. It probably won’t be me, though. Bye!

@Blizzy, out.
And gone…

Oh, then the chance of getting a rarer fish would be… not rare. And it wouldn’t be fun.

Yes, please don’t make it an o7 topic. I’m gone, and that’s all there is to it.

I don’t get the block code:


If the number was, let’s say 1234, because it’s under 5000,7500,9500 and 10000, wouldn’t it send a signal for all of them?

There’s a weird thing that works? At least, it worked when I used it, so I think it’s still going to work? I forget… Sorry…

Actually, I think I get it. I’m pretty sure the initial block code makes it so that it checks everything, but in order. That means it checks the 5000 first, then the rest, in order.

It works because it’s already inherently an else if. We’ve determined first that it’s not under 5000, which means next we’re checking if it’s betwen 5000 and 7500, and so on.

Process of elimination = yummy concatenation.

Hit by Blizzy with the edit… lol.

Yes, exactly.

Lol, yeah.

a suggestion is: you could add the rating from the old guide and add it here maybe? (Your choice)
Also thanks for remaking it! It will for sure be a lot of help for lots of people.

Yayayay now I can spam this guide at new users who are asking for help but don’t actually search :smiley:

What device does the selling part need? Or did I not read it correctly

Yeah I don’t get the selling part

When I fish it says out of bait when I have 6 bait.

I have another (quick) question for any one
With these numbers:

Would that mean that the only way to get the purple fish is to get 10,000 as your number? So a purple fish is 1 in 10k?

Where is the loot part?

The part where you make the rarity for the fish.

Thank you so much for this! I do have a request though.

Instead of doing this again,

You should also write down what the settings are and stuff in the guide.

You shouldn’t rely on the pictures to explain everything because if we get another image wipe, this guide will be useless once again. It’s a good idea to have everything written down as a backup.

I have all the images backed up on a separate doc, so you don’t need to worry

(Also this is my last comment for now, bye)

Oh that’s good!
Another problem, I’m having trouble understanding the property part of this guide.

Specifically this because I don’t really know how to make it grant +1 to the property.

I’m thinking that maybe this image is it

But it’s in the “Selling the Fish” part so I want to make sure
