    How to use DropDiscount, forcing drops for events

    This is a nice simple way of forcing drops for events and things. With Halloween coming up i figured people might like this.

    In /etc/cabal/WorldSvr_XX_YY.ini
    UseDropDiscount=1

    In /etc/cabal/Data/const.scp
    Code:
    [DropDiscount]	OriginalKind	OriginalOption	ChangeKind	ChangeOption	ChangeRate
    0		579		1		783		0		100
    1		580		1		783		0		100
    2		581		1		783		0		100
    [DropDiscount] = Incrementer. Not useful. Starts and 0 and goes up 1 each time. Make as many lines as you like.
    OriginalKind = ItemIdx to replace.
    OriginalOption = Original ItemOpt
    ChangeKind = ItemIdx to replace with
    ChangeOption = New ItemOpt
    ChangeRate = % chance of replacing (100 = always replace, 50 = replace half the drops).

    So...
    Code:
    [DropDiscount]	OriginalKind	OriginalOption	ChangeKind	ChangeOption	ChangeRate
    0		579		1		783		0		100
    579 = Extract Potion(STR), OriginalOption (ItemOpt) 1 means 1 potion.
    783 = Chaos Lamp, OriginalOption 0 as its a normal item.
    ChangeRate = 100 means replace all Extract Potion(STR) drops with lamps!

    Code:
    [DropDiscount]	OriginalKind	OriginalOption	ChangeKind	ChangeOption	ChangeRate
    0		579		1		783		0		50
    Only change 50%. Extract Pots can be useful

    EDIT: Added my worldsvr config example.

    I actually included comments about this in my last repack but nobody has asked questions and i was expecting some so i thought i would post it.

    I have not had that problem during testing, but then ex pots aren't dropping with those settings. I'm 99% sure i have some in my inv though (i'm at work and can't check from here). I'll do some more testing and update if need be.

    Can't you just use the files i have released here, specifically for making private servers?
