Here's an example: You have a variable xABCD that has a value of 1 in the game. Now you would like to have that the variable stays equal 1 with a 50% chance, but with 25% probability changes to 2 and with 25% probability to 3.
In this case you set 'ChooseFrom=4' (because then every event has a 25% probability) and
0_xABCD=2
1_xABCD=3
Given this SH3 Commander changes the value to 2 if 0 is chosen, to 3 if 1 is chosen and does nothing if 2 and 3 are chosen.
You could achieve the same with:
0_xABCD=2
1_xABCD=3
2_xABCD=1
3_xABCD=1
I hope this is clear. If not please ask.
Best, LGN1

Hi LGN1,
Really appreciate the reply; your knowledge will be a big help. Lots of questions.
I understand the examples you made but here's where I get confused. One of the malfunction options, just chosen at random.
[Mal1:data\Library\Cameras.dat]
;1940 10% randomization
<---- I take it this is just a comment line ?
ApplyToPeriod=19400101|19411231
ChooseFrom=90
<---How does 90 equate with the 24 items below ? I can't figure it out with the 10% randomization.
RndMidPat=1
0_x2ECD=20 ;Attack Periscope Drops duration[4]
0_x2EE2=20 ;Attack Periscope Blur duration[3]
1_x2ECD=37
1_x2EE2=37
2_x2ECD=60
2_x2EE2=60
3_x2ECD=3600
3_x2EE2=3600
4_x2ECD=37
4_x2EE2=37
4_x2AFC=18 ;Obs Periscope Drops duration[4]
4_x2B11=18 ;Obs Periscope Blur durarion[3]
5_x2ECD=3600
5_x2EE2=3600
5_x2AFC=18
5_x2B11=18
6_x2ECD=20
6_x2EE2=20
6_x302F=1.5 ;Zoom
6_x304E=1.5 ;Zoom
7_x302F=1.5
7_x304E=1.5
8_x302F=6.0
8_x304E=6.0
And as long as I have your attention
, I found this post of yours in my searches and have a question about it too.(and really like the idea/damage report idea vs. hex offsets).

Using this example at random, why does the MnID have to also be used vs. only the Key part of a command ?:
;----------Bold decoy failure begin-----------------------------------
[0:data\Cfg\Commands_en.cfg]
;Bold decoy is not working
;Chance: 10%
ApplyToPeriod=19390101|19450508
ChooseFrom=10
RndMidPat=1
0_Cmd200|MnID= ; Empty MnID
0_Cmd200|Key0= ; Empty command
;No warning. You only know after trying.
[0:data\Cfg\Commands_de.cfg]
ApplyToPeriod=19390101|19450508
ChooseFrom=10
RndMidPat=1
0_Cmd200|MnID= ; Empty MnID
0_Cmd200|Key0= ; Empty command
Hope all is well,
John
