Instead of setting the MORE1 property of a spawn to a single character defname, a spawn group can be used instead so that a random character is spawned. A spawn group contains a set of character defnames, with optional weights to affect their chances of spawning.
Contents
Syntax
The syntax for defining a spawn group is:
[SPAWN defname]
ID=character_defname_1 weight
ID=character_defname_2 weight
ID=character_defname_3 weight
etc..
The weight parameter can be used to make a defname more likely to be selected than the other defnames in the group. With a weight of 10 for example, a defname would be 10 times more likely to be selected.
Properties
The following properties are available when defining a spawn group:
| Name | Read/Write | Description |
| DEFNAME | W | Sets the spawn group's defname. |
| ID defname weight | W | Adds a defname to the spawn group with the specified weight. |
Examples
// // Undead spawn from default script pack. // [SPAWN 08001] DEFNAME=SPAWN_Undead_Weak ID=c_spectre,2 ID=c_skeleton_w_axe ID=c_skeleton_w_sword ID=c_skeleton,5 ID=c_zombie,10
