Random event Variables??

[Sick-_-boys]

Alright so I don't know much about variables, but I want to add a random event so if I interact with an event/object a number of times, let's say one out of 50 times I can get a secret item. I would say the best example of this is in Yume Nikki, if you turn the lights off and on a number of times you would summon Uboa. something like that... if that makes sense.

if u want a 2% chance you'd make the event like:
control variable: x "Percent" random 0 ~ 99
if variable is < 2
do special thing
else
do normal thing

if you want a set 50th interaction you make the event:
if variable = 49
do special thing
variable control: add 1 (or reset to 0 if you want this to be repeatable)
else
variable control: add 1
do normal thing

you can make as many "if" statements as you want, just make sure to turn on the "Else" branch for all of them
example could be:
control variable: x random 0~99
if variable < 40
give tin ore
else
if variable <70
give copper ore
else
if variable < 90
give iron ore
else
"nothing but dirt"
(and finish if off with) control switch: x = On

now that same percentile variable is also used for a different event to give 40% chance at tin, 30% being copper, 20% iron, and 10% chance at nothing
and can have all mining switches be turned Off from a different event like the event to leave the dungeon or a common event that runs when you sleep at an inn so it respawns
