Logic_random_outputs outputting multiple triggers.

#1 · October 10, 2012, 10:39 pm

I'm using logic_random_outputs to make Glados speak. I have the speech working perfectly, and for each "chance" I have 0.125, as I have 8 outputs. But sometimes nothing plays, and sometimes two different events play. Am I using the entity wrong?

I would use a logic_case and the PickRandomShuffle output.
Not like I have anything against logic_random_outputs, but I've never used it before as it only appeared with Alien Swarm.

EDIT: Ok so reading what this entitiy does on the VDC, it says that it needs a decimal to decide what chance an event will happen. Unless of course the entity should fire any OnTrigger1-8 as a chance of 1/8, perhaps that is why sometimes it may play many or none of the events.

To test this out I would change the chance of an event happening from 1/8 to .75 and see how many voices will play at once.

How would I substitute my setup currently with that, step-by-step? They all just trigger with Start.

Edit: Never mind. I figured it out and it works perfectly. Thanks!
