Easiest way around this is to use a dg_script instead. It's far more customizable anyway.

Code:

set chance1 %random.100%
set chance2 %random.100%
if %chance% >= 60
  %load% obj 201
done
if %chance2% >= 60
  %load% obj 202
done
end

There is something simple I wrote. Am I doing it the right way?

if %chance3% >= 70
  %load% obj 204
done
if %chance4% <= 5
  %load% obj 206
done
if %chance5% <= 3
  %load% obj 205
done
if %chance6% <= 1
  %load% obj 203
done
end

There is what the final dg_script came out like. Tell me what you think of it.

Good job, two simple examples by Shamra I found below.

Code:

Name: 'Percent load chance',  VNum: [ 8955], RNum: [ 1176]
Trigger Intended Assignment: Rooms
Trigger Type: Zone Reset , Numeric Arg: 100, Arg list: None
Commands:
eval rand %random.5%
if %rand% == 1
%load% obj 8900
end

Name: 'percent drop example',  VNum: [ 8956], RNum: [ 1177]
Trigger Intended Assignment: Mobiles
Trigger Type: Death , Numeric Arg: 75, Arg list: None
Commands:
%echo% %self.name% cackles gleefully as he destroys his powerful weapon before death washes over him.
%purge% (put a very specific name of the object here that is unique, for example xxxdemonswordxxx)

Keep in mind that an "if/else" statement in dg_scripts is closed with an "end", not a "done". "done" is used to close out a "switch", or a "while".
