set block to random block in list

[BOXEY]

I was thinking how I can set a mined block to a random block that is in a list of blocks like this

 

 

varibles:
	{list1) = dirt, grass_block, ect.


on mine of block:
	if player has permisson "playa":
		set event-block to random item in {list1}
	

 

"idk if this code works just made on the fly"

Wrong, all wrong. First of all. Screw an actual variable and use a local variable list.

 

on break:
	player has permission "playa"
	set {_list::*} to dirt, grass block, stone, and cobblestone
	set {_b} to a random element out of {_list::*}
	set event-block to {_b}

The syntax really is 'random element out of'. This should work. Also no need for an 'if' if you're not going to put an 'else'. It's just laggy and pointless. To make a variable local, assuming you don't know what that is just add an underscore before the variable name.

Global:

{variable}

Local: 

{_variable}

Why is this efficient? It deletes its self after the code is done running. Whileas your list would stay in variables.csv forever. Hey, any bit counts. By the way, a LIST variable is what you need. List variables always end with '::*'

Non-List variable just regular variable:

{variable} or {_varaible} or {variable::%player%}

List variable:

{variable::*} or {_variable::*} or {variable::%player%::*}
