Random Attack System

[BuildingKit]

Right now I am making a boss with randomized attacks via the use of blocks. I’m trying to make it like how critical hits work(or maybe i should find another solution idk), only without the setting of randomly searching integers when someons shoots a gadget for themselves, & immediately activated once pop-up closes(aka the dialouge). The pro, with the right functions, it can work. The cons..I have zero clue on how blocks work.
To be specific, I just need to find a way to make 5 randomized attacks in very random orders work.

Here are some guides I would suggest looking at to learn about blocks:

An intro to blocks | TUTORIAL | Difficulty:

So you want to code in gimkit? This is a tutorial that will try give you a good introduction to the subject! First steps Only some devices can run code. Some examples of this are the trigger and text object. For now, we’ll use triggers, so go ahead and place one down. When you click on it, will be two tabs on the left: Options and Blocks. Click Blocks! [image] Next, click “When triggered”, under create new block. This makes a place where we can write code. The code will run when the trigger …

Intro to Compressing Blocks

Want to compress your code? If you don’t know how this guide will teach you! There is a intro to blocks guide too! Go check it out! The Beginning The first thing to mention is that code blocks take up 500 memory! So try to avoid them if it is a simple if statement you need to run. You can use checkers to run if statements so it saves memory! [1] You only have 75 blocks per 500 memory, so compressing your code is crucial! If you want to edit, please read post #8 Using Variables Using V…

The first one doesn’t have pictures, but it does tell you how the blocks work!

A Guide to Sentry abilities! (Difficulty 3/10)

First of all, good guide. Next, In step 2 you had code like this [Screenshot 2025-07-01 8.35.57 AM] You could have just used concatenation, in which you could simplify the code. This is probably not very smart on my part because I’m just going to type it out. [Screenshot 2025-07-01 at 1.37.38 PM] Here is an image The thing is, you don’t need to make 3 different if statements, using that thing I mentioned called concatenation, you could just randomize your abilities, and just concatenate t…

I can come up with a formula for the crits rq
but for now to simplify your random attack blocks try this and just create the corresponding channels for 1 through 5 for the attacks you’re doing

do note this method only works for some systems depending on how you’re doing them

[Blackfox45666]

if [crit] < [crit chance]

set property [final dmg]
[final dmg] * [crit dmg]

then just subtract the player hp from that

also for details on the props

crit will be randomly set from 1-100 each time the random attack trigger is triggered

crit chance will be well your chance to get a crit so like if you get less then lets say a 70 crit chance you get a crit but if you get above 70 you don’t

crit dmg will be the prop that you can set to whatever you want depending on stats increase as you like
but it will usually be between 1 and 2 in decimals but go higher if you’d like (for example 1.5 is +50% crit dmg and 2 and 2.5 will be +100% and +150% crit dmg and etc)

attack formula will be just atk * [desired multiplier in decimals] and that’ll be your final dmg prop

oh yay thx i’ll take a look at those guides
