Best way for this....

I am making a Chance event and everything is good except how to check if the chosen number of the box has any players inside it, right now I have this

PHP Code:
  for (temp.plallplayers) {
    if (
temp.pl.level.name == this.level.name && playersInLevel >= 2) {
      {
        if (
temp.pl.x in coords[box 1][0], coords[box 1][1] | && temp.pl.y in coords[box 1][2], coords[box 1][3] | ) {
          
playerInBox true
Now this works but it is very buggy (wont cycle through different boxes, it chooses a player and no matter how many times you grab the block it still chooses the same box), can someone help me with the best way to do this event?

Use players (local to the levels) instead of allplayers (entire server).

PHP Code:
temp.boxes = {
  {
001010}, // x, y, width, height
  
{10101010},
};
temp.box temp.boxes[int(random(0,temp.boxes.size()))];
for (
temp.plplayers) {
  if (
temp.pl.x in |temp.box[0], temp.box[0] + temp.box[2]| && temp.pl.y in |temp.box[1],temp.box[1]+temp.box[3]|) {
    
temp.pl.setlevel2("warpout.nw"3030);
  }

Thanks for that but I am still having a problem, what if the random box chosen has no players in it? I don't see a way to avoid an overflow when theres nobody in the boxes...

The way I did Chance on UN was to go through each box before selecting the losing box and check if it has player in it's boundaries. If it did, I added it's number to an array. Then picked randomly from this array, so you always get a box with at least one player in it.

What do you even mean? If there's nobody in the selected box, it will just end up looping through all the players in the level once and do nothing to any of them.

Yes, why do you want to know that?
