I would like a conman script, that works like the Con Merchant from OOT.

 

He could sell a mystery item, which is unknown and could be good or bad.

 

Link would not be able to see what he is selling, until he pays the merchant and recieves the mystery item.

Item Script. Set as the pickup script to a 'mystery' item, and set the first D values to the ids of the items you want it to turn into. You can change it as it says to add more than 3 possible results.

Item Script

item script Mystery {
  // Add items like this to 1 less than the number you want. So if you want 5 possible items, add
  // ", int item3, int item4" in there.
  void run(int item0, int item1, int item2) {

    // Pick item id.
    int index = Rand(3); // Set to 1 more than the number of items.
    int itemId;
    // Copy these lines and change the numbers to add more possible items.
    if (index == 0) {itemId = item0;}
    if (index == 1) {itemId = item1;}
    if (index == 2) {itemId = item2;}

    // Give to Link.
    ForceHeldItem = itemId;
    CreateItemAt(itemId, Link->X, Link->Y);}}

Active Script. This part is so that the item properly changes while Link is holding it.

Active Script

const int FORCE_NO_ITEM = -2;

// Item to force link to hold.
int ForceHeldItem = FORCE_NO_ITEM;

global script Active {
  void run() {
    while (true) {

      // Change HeldItem to ForceHeldItem.
      // If HeldItem is already ForceHeldItem, then we can clear it.
      if (ForceHeldItem != FORCE_NO_ITEM) {
        if (Link->HeldItem == ForceHeldItem) {ForceHeldItem = FORCE_NO_ITEM;}
        else {Link->HeldItem = ForceHeldItem;}}

      Waitframe();}}}
